Death

It was clever of you to trick us.
Silly Death!
To you, we're mere fools.

Such an easy crowd to make games with.
Playful Death!
To you, we're your tools.

But actually, you aren't that at all.
Sneaky Death!
Secretly, you're lies.

You're the kindest ever created.
Loving Death!
Secretly, life's disguise.
