Death

Death introduced itself to me years ago,
It said, "I can take all of your pain away."
But I didn't want to leave so I declined.

Death came back soon after,
It said, "You'll feel better with me."
But I was too scared and said, "I'm fine."

Death showed up again,
It said, "There's no tears when I'm around."
But I didn't go, there was life still inside of me.

Death is here once more,
It says, "You'll finally be at peace, I promise."
So this time I gave in and now I'm happy- finally.
