They say that the dead comes back on Halloween
Blurring the lines between the living and the dead
But if we, the living, be very keen
We would realize that we are no different
One may ask…
What is the difference between the living and the dead?
When the youth, who are supposed to be filled with life, chant:
I feel so dead on the inside
What is the difference between the living and the dead?
When adults sulk when Mondays arrive
And going to work like a zombie horde
Living not only means breathing
Living is not defined by a heartbeat
Living means hope
Living means you live every day like your last day
Living means having a passion, a dream
That’s what makes us living
Drop your phones and drop your worries
Step out of your house and step out of your comfort zone
Dress up for Halloween to scare away the dead
Give some candy and get some back
Enjoy the sweetness and cackle through the night
Just remember this…
It ain’t the dead that’s been haunting you
Because it was only you all along
Don’t paint yourself like a zombie
Because you are the joker that gets the last laugh
