Death

By: Sara Cooper

Covered in shadows that are darker than night, it waits.

Its power is endless.

Nothing can stop it.

But what is it you ask?

It is the evil that stalks the night.

It is the thing that causes despair.

It brings Ceaseless pain.

It consumes all in its path.

It never stops till the jobs done.

Before you least expect it, this creature strikes.

It never knows the meaning of mercy.

Love. Kindness. Caring. It knows nothing of these words.

What is it you ask again?

It is the monster that roams the night.

It is never ending evil.

All it knows is hatred.

It takes away loved ones from our grasp.

What is it?

It is Death.
