Death & the Man

Death gives a second chance

By Alicia AnspaughPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

One day death came for a man.

"But I don't want to die" the man said

"Your choices led to this end." Said Death

The man could not deny that he had made very poor choices.

"Is there no way for me to extend my life sir?" He persisted.

Death sighed "There is but one spark of light left, it will be up to you to fan it to a fire."

"Use it wisely"
