Death

Like an unknown force
that picks the time.
There are no tickets
there are no lines.
You cannot fight it
you can't change its mind.


It will pick up your soul
with no reason why.
It has no feelings
it does not cry.

It sounds cold
it sounds cruel
but this is the truth.

This is how
death comes to
collect you.
