In the Arms of Death
In my loneliness sorrow
I reside each night in arm's of death
On the precipice of blackness
Icy hands
Cold breath
Retaining only a minute connection
With the living
I wrap eagerly round him
Arms beckoning
As the mist envelopes me
Hopelessness
The woven blanket of pain
Under which we sleep
My freezing heart beat
In the arms of death
