Dear Death,
<br /><br />
<br /><br />I felt you creeping
<br /><br />among the weeping
<br /><br />Your silence stretching out beyond the
<br /><br />Sacred grounds
<br /><br />That we call home.
<br /><br />
<br /><br />Death, I saw you
<br /><br />In the eyes of a young mother
<br /><br />as you stole away her baby daughter
<br /><br />and slaughterd
<br /><br />Her soul.
<br /><br />
<br /><br />You were there to ,
<br /><br />Hiding in the gardenias,
<br /><br />The red roses.
<br /><br />Spreading your sorrow ,
<br /><br />Through thier thorned stems.
<br /><br />As the tender-aged lovers
<br /><br />Picked You.
<br /><br />
<br /><br />Sweet girl I saw death on your heart,
<br /><br />When that deadly roses thorn ,
<br /><br />Pricked YOu,
<br /><br />and your lover went astray.
<br /><br />
<br /><br />Death I see you in tommorrows yesterday.
<br /><br />Peering out the shadows
<br /><br />Dangling fear over some fraglie childs head
<br /><br />Using the seduction of escape,
<br /><br />To make some wish they were Dead.
<br /><br />
<br /><br />This time coming to claim me
<br /><br />Only to name me a victim.
<br /><br />Unrelenting
<br /><br />I am repenting
<br /><br />I refuse to let you have me
<br /><br />As,
<br /><br />A CHild of God is what" I be"
<br /><br />I belong to the kingdom.
<br /><br />
<br /><br />Oh lovely Death
<br /><br />I saw you the other day
<br /><br />I merely whisperd "Eternal Life " walked away.
<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br /><br />Sincerely Tiana.
