Time’s Up by fiveplustwo

Time’s Up

Stayed late at the office, taking Advil pills
Yelled at both your kids while stressing over bills
You just had to log on for only one more night
Sorry children, but I can’t read to you tonight

Surprise… Just like that, there is no more time
Good bye to your life, the filth and the grime
Death here, knocking at your door… you’re through
The underworld is dying to see you

@kerosene
Grim... And sad...

Wise words indeed. I left the rats to race off into the distance many years ago. I started doing the things I enjoyed doing, and oddly enough, I'm earning just as much now for having fun, than I ever did as a high flying, high pressure corporate exec. I also think it has postponed my appointment with the reaper by a good many years. :)

Good reminder to make the most of what time we have - and the photo is excellent!

Spine-chilling: the verses and the picture!

Morbid just got a whole new meaning for me. A very different one. Thank you for the photo and the words.

oh my god this is scary... I really hope death is not like that, meeting this being, I want greetings from family , and freedom from the body to fly in many dimensions...

@swillinbillyflynn Mr Flynn, you are inspiring. I shall follow in your footsteps in the near-ish future... I'm no high pressure exec and won't log on at night for the most part - but the corporate world does get quite dull...

@kali66 I much prefer Neil Gaimans representation of Death. She is a sweet Goth girl who is very caring, understanding and helpful. I'm hoping he has got it right. :)
