Dear Death

Understand one thing and take it to death Tell him of it’s worth and show him it’s tears He will drench it in darkness and tell of nothing better It is pathetic that no one shall ever see that you never mattered Cosmic passing, gone to the galaxy without a blink All that he never touched will know nothing His hands could not reach light years But his thoughts reached further than deaths ever will When you meet deaths loving inescapable grasp Stare him in his black hole eyes and tell him Tell him you never mattered But don’t forget that he is there forever An eternity in shadows His only power is inevitability Feel the jealousy in his intimate hold for he cannot think beyond the light In our last dying breath we still hold the might
