If we could choose when to be born
Would we also choose the colour of our eyes
And the sound of our voice?
Would we live as Kings whilst
Those who were born unplanned
Lived as beggars and thieves?
No matter what the origin
In the end only a soul with eyes and a voice
Unfettered by choice or luck
Should have the opportunity to choose when to die
Before the ravages of old age take a fine man
And make him a shadow of his former self
It's only fair right?
