Teddy Kimathi Poet Rhyme

Death

It comes like a shadow;
quietly. No one can know
when it strikes. It may be now,
the next hour, or tomorrow.

A lifeless body
that frightens everybody
is the only mark
that it leaves in its wake.....

Max Corvus May 29, 2015 at 9:08 AM Nice, not exceptional, but nice. I'd like to hear that one played at a Goth concert. Teddy Kimathi May 29, 2015 at 10:21 AM Lol. I wrote my poem to fit more like in a rap song. For concerts, that came as a surprise to me. Thank you for enjoying my read Max! ;-)
