The reaper grim,. Has come herein,. To take your soul,. With his scythe,. You will writhe,. Until you're no longer whole,. With his hooded cloak,. Your life broke,. Your meeting will never end well,.
I fear my kin. My time has come. My songs been sang. My death knell rung. My flame that flickers. Shall soon burn out. My sands of time. Have trickled down. My heart no longer. Beats so fierce.
End of the world: I lay here and I'm thinking. What can I do right now to make this special. I play back the memories in my head.
If it be true that soon it will all end. I thank you for allowing me to be your friend. Yes I've had some feelings, and yes I wish I could hold your hand.
If we die tomorrow, I think I'll be alright. Although there will be darkness, I know I've seen the light.
I hear the hands of death. A tick, a tock, a tocking. They haunt my every step, They tick, they tock. Just mocking. I fear the hands of death, A tick, a tock, a tocking.

Flying high. Shallow breath. Lightheaded thoughts. Whimsical Death. Like a dream. No trouble, no rush. No anything, really. Quiet now, hush. Let him take you away. On his grand onyx steed.
Look and look and never find. Cloudy shadows fill your mind. Inspiration hides in your eyes. Love laces all your lies. Find your love and hold them near. Keep them close and hold them dear.
You breathe it in and breathe it out, And then you stop. The lights go out. So, paint a dream, but paint it thin, For life is not, What it seems. This is all you've got left in life today.
I can't explain it, But when you enter the home you can feel it. Death doesn't hide there, Something my young mortal mind can't seem to fathom, but the elderly understand it.
