I Am Death

I Am Death

I am death,
But I am afraid of you.
I know its too contradicting.
But, its really true.

I am loosing my mercilessness,
I am loosing my cruelity,
Dont come closer,
I am afraid of your purity.
I am afraid of your generosity.
You are crystal clear like dew.
Thats why I am afraid of you.

I have kissed millions of your fellows,
But why my lips are shivering before kissing you.
I can't embrace you,
I can't caress you.
I am afraid of your chastity. 
I am afraid of your virginity.
You are too tender.
You are very new.
Thats why I am afraid of you.

Now, I can't harm you.
I am regretful for what I was going to do.
I am death 
But I am dying for you.
Because I am afraid of you.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
