Death

by goddess-glamourpuss   Dec 22, 2006


Do not fear me.
A life lived in fear is only half lived
Embrace the light. Live in the moment
Long may you tarry in shadow

Do not welcome me.
Recklessness invites disaster
Despondency heralds no sweet release
My entrance requires no invitation

I am not your enemy.
No stalking ruthless predator
Marking off grains of sand
Silently drumming skeletal fingers

I am not your friend.
Dreams and desires
Welfare and happiness
Meaningless. Irrelevant

I am merely an agent.
Not of chaos and destruction
Of Nature.
And Time.

    Interesting. It was more of an informative poem, or so I got from it, but you kind of contridict yourself. However, I like how it was written; it flows nicely. Good job.

    P.S. Glowing Embers--
    I can't comment on it because it's a love poem, so I'll leave it here.
    Very interesting, again. Most interestingly written. I was a little confused, but again, I liked how it was written. I gave it a 5. Good job.
