Death

by Depressed and Healing Sadie   Jul 31, 2014


He watches you from the shadows.

He waits for the right time to take you to the next world.

Death is something you should be afraid of.

When he has a grip on you, there is no escape.

Everyone who has encountered Death rarely escapes with their lives.

    I great way to start your piece, it sets a haunting scene in which the reader wants to read more to understand who is watching. So simple are your words which come to life in the visual readers mind!

    Such a great way to end this piece I love the way you have said "rarely escapes with their lives." So true but I never thought of it in that way!
