Shadow of DeathA Poem by HadesRisingI never asked for it Chosen to be the chosen one to gather souls of those Chosen to become post-mortemI never asked for it Chosen to be the chosen one to gather souls of those Chosen to become post-mortem To live or damn eternal fates of the wrong Either embrace by heaven’s fate, or enslaved by Satan’s throne I’ve gone by many names, pronounced with screams of pain I’ve walked through valleys of dark And embarked through hells flames Such a shame that in the end I am all you have left Now draw your last breath, hello, my name is death The only thing that’s certain I guarantee to each and every person Here through the curtains and I’ll be there lurkin A predator with man I’m forced to enforce the course of nature Provided by omnipotent plans These hands are so callous, from years of such malice Sir fear is thy power, sever but must balance Adhere to my talent, some here you must vanish Time for one’s loved one to drink from thy chalice It never seizes to amaze me Witness them screaming and carry on when I come for their babies Or mothers, fathers, brothers, daughters Husbands, wives, uncles, slaughter I just do what I’m supposed to But yet you feel the need to bleed When you see my shadow’s amongst you You pray for forgiveness, perhaps a second chance I do not speak your language, why must you even ask Your body fills with Paralysis Your eyes open wide, and pupils dilate with self-analysis So just relax and let it go Let the wings of fate delegate responsibility of your souls And it’s over now, your soul has reached it's destination And it’s funny how you’re at the gates of hell But yet your body’s underground And deafening silence always seems to be the only sound As you’re descending down Ye though I walk through the valley of a shadow of death Thou shalt fear no evil, for Thou are with me Thy rod and Thy staff - shalt comfort me © 2019 HadesRising |
