Dear Death


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.
