Dead Man In the Curtains

Death hides in the curtains as it creeps upon you in the night. May it find you at your strongest, as it always finds you at your weakest. Let it come fast like a thief in the night, and let you be blessed. Death watches over you in the mist of the night! May it watch with kindness and dispair, as it holds its dagger back. Let it come slow like the last drops of blood come, and emotionally Death is here and its wakes you desparetly in the early morning. May it take away all happiness and sorrow, and let it be fast Let it be your last, as the dagger of love and temptation, as it drips away your last few seconds of life.
