The Thought of Death

Death is laughging in her cry
 No time for tears to dry
 An underlying sense of counting down
 The blackend life
 Her baggy eye caught a glint of the knife
 Its death again
 He's always here
 Watchinng waiting hear the stare
 A half painted face so incomplete
 A stranger in the mirror for me to meet
 Another day has past
 My thoughts are forever here to last...

it is creepy to think that death is always watching and waiting
