Death
the void is endless & vast
don't get lost in it's maw
there are endless ways in
& no way out
you won't realize until later
that you're trapped
then the fight is on
but it's too late
battle the dark
while you can
this is a warning
heed it well
you will bleed from the inside
great rivers of sorrow
if you ignore this call
death is on the horizon
see his pale horse
as it rides hard
it awaits your fall
into the arms of misery
where you won't be safe
when you aren't keeping watch
he will come for you
take you to the land of the dead
where your destiny is undetermined
take hold of joy
be grateful for the little things
they will keep you from harm
enter a realm of peace
you know where to hide
tucked safely in the poetry pages
this is sanctuary
for the lost & broken
here you have mighty wings
can evade any devil
that would seek to devour
so keep close to what you cherish
this is a love letter
read it in times of stress
& remember your fate isn't sealed
