Hello, Death. Goodbye, Life.

I’m sitting here

So alone.

The only thing I fear

Is the Unknown.

 

Watching the sky

Turn to black,

I wish that he

Would just come back.

 

He takes away

This God-awful pain.

If only he would stay –

In his arms I would remain.

 

He owns my soul –

He is the keeper.

My heart he stole,

He, the Grim Reaper.

 

And so I take my last breath,

Wielding a knife,

“Hello, Death.

Goodbye, Life.”

 

Now together

We will always be,

Bound by a tether

For all eternity.
