Death's Ugly Face!


A Poem by debileah
 

Let death not show it's ugly face.

I have felt more than my share of despair.

For death it seems has come to knock upon my door once again.

E rupting like a volcano, the aftershocks of an earthquake.

 

A nd I can find no hope at the end of this rope.

N o beauty in wearing this black velvet dress.

eath be not proud, for you have taken my only son.

 

D eath you have taken, my mother and father, and so many of my friends. 

E ach in the prime of their lives for they were all too young.

A nd I wonder when you shall come to take me with you as well.

T houghts of heaven and of hell come to my mind.

H aving you so near all of the time, I find it so hard to pray.
