April

Death waits on distant shores
when, one day, i am led to distant shores,
from lands of barren grey to hell’s delight,
i ponder whether i’ll be you or yours;
i cry that i can’t see, though it is night.
if Death should take me by his lifeless hand,
i fear that everything will look the same.
i fail to trust this world in which i stand,
but i shall be his boy to set aflame.
how shall i know when i have crossed the line?
when i am far too gone and far below?
eternal sleep, its claim, hard to define
but by the love of darkness, apropos.
reality, elusive, can be found
when i am trapped by fate and by Death bound.
