Warning To a Stranger

Upon the hilltop darkened deep Sat a house in fitful sleep They sat and watched, and no sound came From the two in their fame The first one spoke, sollem and still "Look at them. Useless. Let me kill. It will be quick and free of pain, and on their beds they will be lain." The other said, "I'll be the one to make sure they don't see the sun. I have been here, usless so long. I'll make them fear me and my song." A third voice, saying, "Panic and pain, Pretty names, but you're both insane. For I am Death, they fear my name And you two must do the same." With an ice cold touch, the two both fell. Just as the clock struck it's bell One , two, all the way to twelve And all was silent, nevermore to delve So if you feel an ice cold breath Your time is near, can't hide from death For you met the raven, Death's personal servant You will die soon, though your prayers be fervent So take heed and take warning It may come at eve or moning But come it may and come it must For though death isn't fair,death is just Nobody knows when their time will come But know this now, what's done is done The door is closed, you can't go back Your death will come, and all will be black And you will know, nevermore.
