Remembrance of My Death

Around, all around, the storm clouds gather.
My dread grows as the Dark One's touch falls against my neck
It crushes me, and darkly my
life's blood drips
to the thirsty earth.
In pain I hang my head
while death hovers close.
Now alone, my cry of mercy falls upon uncaring eyes.

This is because of you.
