One Uneventful Night

by playinaround

I thought it would be the devil! Contest Winner 
I have always lived on the edge
Just one step away from the ledge
 
A death wish you might say
Taking for granted each day
 
 My family prepared for the wake
And the poignant speech they would make
 

Approaching  my sixty third year
I guess I was meant to be here

I don't like to guess my demise
But just for this exercise
 
In my room the grim reaper will creep
And whisk me away as I sleep
