The Reaper's Visit

by theresadreamer   May 13, 2008


Is it true
Should I believe you

Why are we in black
Why can't we go back

What do you mean I'm dead
When did I hit my head

Falling off the roof top?
It was a deadly drop?

I don't know what you're talking about
Why is it I can't scream out?

You're scaring me
What do you mean?

Why is Mother crying?
Over her daughter dying?

But that's me...
But I'm right here, see?

Why can't I touch her?
When will this joke be over?

What do you mean I died?
And that's why Mother cried?

But I'm only seven...
I don't want to go to Heaven

I don't deserve it anyway
So why don't you let me stay

I want to go home
I don't want to die alone

Why is a smile on your face
"You're never alone in Death's place..."
