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
