When death shall win

by XxCrimsonxSinxX   May 29, 2005


When death shall win this fight and take me away,
Then let no person weep, for my memories shall stay.
Let it not be said that I yielded with a sigh,
Let it not be to those who know me a good-bye.
Sorrow has followed me whereever I go,
But to the world only a smile have I tried to show.
Let not my passing be sadness in an already tragic place,
But I lived life through the devils glorious grace.
If in some small way I have touched a heart,
Then I worship that sacred heart.
For the people I have been privileged and blessed to have known,
Then my life was not in vain for the love that they have shown.
So for myself please do not weep or mourn,
For I have prepared for my death since the day I was born...

    We simply MUST believe there is something more to our existence than...this.
    Life can be so unbearably cruel, cold, and callous at times.
    A wonderfully rhymed verse which is as direct and on point as it is moribund.
    Well done, XxCrimsonxSinxX...
