Image for the poem why be so afraid

why be so afraid

Why be so afraid?

the reapers touch is just as dark

eventually we have no time for happiness , anyway

save your happiness for tomorrow

and today we'll drown in tears

as it's the beginning of an end

it's a funeral!

a funeral!

for us all!

this night has a moon like an adorned skull

that watches on our deep sleep

the dripping dark describe in black

the burial ground of memories

with souls left in shards

in and out of the way, spot my skull

a rouge horror delivered from out inner self

painted on the snake corpse of the night

tormented by two devil-twins

who transfixes a blade in my heart, in rags?

who kills me and rises me again from the dead?

it's a funeral!

a funeral in me!

a funeral in us all!

have no fear from this nightmare

it happens to us all!

like a funeral in me ..
