A Letter To Death

Dear Death I write to you,

In hopes you’ll understand

It’s been quite awhile

Since  blood has stained these hands

How have you been old friend?

I’m sure that you are fine

In coping with new hatred

And sipping your red wine

Yes, I still have nightmares

Entangled in my past

Open up a memory

And I will hit the glass

Oh death we were once old friends

But now I’ve got to say

I regret ever meeting you

Or entangling in this game

For no longer do you control me

Or immobilize me with fear

Death you do not intimidate me

I pray for you to be here.

And every night 

And every day

I have to fight

These tears away

For what you’ve done

And I an accomplice

The loss of innocence

Is truly astounding

So come to me 

My dear old friend

Take one more life

Please let mine end.

I apologies for any grammatical or spelling errors i hope you enjoy the nonsense in my head.
