Deathsong

I do not feel the winter,
For I cannot feel the cold.
I do not fear the ages,
For I am in spirit old.
I do not fear the sword,
For I’ve no blood to be shed.
I do not fear the silence,
For I’ve no words to be said.
I do not fear the wounds,
For I have been rejected.
I do not fear disease,
For I have been infected.
I do not fear temptation,
For my eyes have long been kept.
I do not fear compassion,
For I have no true heart left.
I do not fear the Reaper,
For my life has now been stolen.
I no longer feel the cold,
For I am already frozen.

    I figured for the record I'd add that I would never dream of copying a poem, off the net or anywhere, in case it's brought up for future reference.

    Hey, and I also really appreciate you guys commenting on my stuff. Thanks always,

    paperdoll.

    P.S Thanks to all but Tiffany. *Insert dramatic roll of eyes* Self-explanatory, I think.
