Death
Comes To Visit…
Death comes to
visit me every night
Long after
everyone’s gone to sleep
He knows just
where to find me every time
I’m never too
far away
Quietly
contemplating the path of my life
He keeps his
advice to himself, but his presence is always felt
The eminence of
his legacy weighs heavily on me
He stays quiet
like the nite, just patiently bidding his time
I stay awake
keeping my eye on him
In hopes of
prolonging my demise.
