Death

Slowly and silently – the Angel creeps

Through the dark night - the moonlight not daring to touch it.

Shying away from its presence

Death is a thrilling thing - secretly wreaking havoc on those whom it visits.

It knocked on my door once

I was shaking, I was not ready

I looked at its eyes.

I saw memories of times long past.

The face of he whom I lost from this world.

One who I never dared to replace

Never wishing to forget him

A step back. A step forward.

He looked at me

His dark eyes searching mine

Flitting through my memories

Like a memory itself.

And that's how he convinced me to go without a fuss.

Because there was nothing left for me here in this world.
