Angel of Death

Angel of Death
All draped in black robes
With magnificent wings
And holding that scythe
That is soon to take my life
There I lay cold in my bed
My family fading further and further
My breathing becomes more and more labored
He busts through the door
His breath is palpable form the cold
He watches as I wave good bye
Then as if I was dreaming I was by his side
I saw myself as an infant
Then a teenager
Then a man
Then at last I saw my body
The family gathered around
And started to cry
I whispered goodbye to everyone
But no one heard
I told my wife that I loved her
I told my son to keep his family health
I told his wife to take care of the kids
I told my grandson to play his best Iâ??d be at every game
I told my granddaughter not to cry I love her no matter what
Then I looked them all in the eyes and said donâ??t worry Iâ??m better now
Then that angel I waited on to end my suffering took me by my hand
I saw my mother
I saw my father
I saw my grand parents
And I saw god
He looked me in the eyes gave me a hug and said welcome home
Heaven is wonderful I see all
And Iâ??m never sick
I look after my kids
And their kids
And their kidâ??s kids
And every now and then I still whisper of there good deeds
Iâ??ll se them again one day
And they see that angel that took my life yet saved it
And brought me home
The angel of death
Yet the angel of life
