Grim Reaper

No sooner had the melodious rhythm stuck with the ears than the drums went silent

Grim Reaper couldn't hide her temperament

She snatched you secretly  to her abode

I say secretly because no one heard her footsteps

Let alone know the route both of you took 

When the news broke , we tried to mend it

But we couldn't find its pieces

Our hearts lost peace

For a peaceful one had bitten the dust

I couldn't fathom how Life could delete your name from its cast

But that wind of inevitability spoke to me in a silent world

You are gone, but you remain a relic in our missive 

So I speak and write words of panegyric through a  necromancer ,

Let me know when you receive my message
