death will be there when i get there
do i fear it?
why should i?
i have brought life into this world
and i have taken it out
i've looked into the eyes of death and seen the void
no, death i do not fear
at least not mine
i fear not being there
when my daughter is in need
i fear i wont be able to save her
should darkness befall
i fear my hands will not catch her
that she will be just out of my reach
in her hour of need
no, death i do not fear
it is these uncertainties
of life
that frighten the hell out of me

I was on my way out the door when I got a frantic call from the wife saying our daughter was stuck at the top of a roller coaster. Later found out she was not even on the damn thing when it broke. The life of a father.......
