ANGEL OF DEATH

as I listen to my heart
it still begins to cry.
it cannot comprehend
what I feel inside.

is this just a phantom
an illusion I have inside.
or is this something else
I have to take in stride.

death is not an illusion
from it we cannot hide.
it takes you when it wants you
even when you cry.

death is just around the corner
so don't even try to fight.
when the angel of death comes for you
just take her hand in flight.
