Death

Mind is blank

all words are empty

crying

sobbing screaming

despite all you do to stop him

The devil always claims his debt

The cost of life is death

and in the end

all that matters is the lack of time

Before you know it

death is beckoning

scream all you want

he won’t listen

he’ll keep coming on, slowly

Run all you want

He’s behind, close

and he’s gaining

your dying scream permeates the frigid air

And he laughs in silence

amusement in his empty eyes

your frivolous demise, so hilarious
