Death

When my time comes, I won't be afraid, I'll greet death like a long lost friend, I won't fear it at all, Life might be short, But Death is forever, We have no say in the matter, Bugs a lot of people I imagine, But when Death comes for me, I'll be ready, No one would miss me I never existed, When my final hour is near, No one will shed a tear, Nor will I, Death, dressed all in black, Glorious death, "Take me," is what I'll say "Don't bother to give me a moment to pray, just haul me to hell" Is what I'd tell him, He would take my hand, I would leave the mortal land, Death would take me as his own, Death glorious death, Carrying me home.
