If I were to lose a friend, what would become of me? Would I take my own life, just to be with her? Or would I accept the fact that she's not alive? Should I share my experience with others, to prevent them from commiting suicide? Or should I not? Should I take on self pity? And let the sadness sweep over over me, like the bacteria that slowly decomposes a dead body, in the darkness of the coffin? Should I stand up to Death? But if I did how could I possibly defeat Him? Can you cheat Death? Bribe and beg Him to take you instead of her, But if you suceeded how would she feel, about my being gone? What actions would you take? Are you up to the challenge? Can you take on Death, as I have unsuceedingly tried? What would you do if a loved one died?
