Grim reaper's feelings

Because we all have feelings right?

Why do people fear me?  

  For it is not I who brings the end of lives. 

 I am only a messenger and the only messenger I am.  

 A taxi to the other sides.

  I did not ask for this job.  

 People say I did but those are lies.

  But I have accepted that I am the one there

  When someone dies.

Author's Note

I just thought.... What would it be like to be death. People come on. I want to know what you thought about it. At least say something

This is a brilliant poem, and it brings up a really good point. A whole nother side to something that we have thought of as bad or evil for our entire lives. This flow worked really well, and I really like how straight-to-the-point it was. The meaning was clear, and you got it across in very few words. Good for you.

People always "shoot the messenger.."
It's a daunting duty.

Awesome job! =)

This is marvelous. I really feel the emotion. It captures my attention.

An interesting perspective on the much-deliberated subject of death and whether it is truly a sad affair, another great poem.

Great write. 'Don't blame/hate/cheat death, you'll hurt his/her feelings' -:) such a poignant, eye-opening, peaceful idea. Check out Kuzak's The Book Thief if you haven't already. And hey (hehe) ;) Respect Inter-transitional Personnel

Your imagination on this is amazing. I would've never thought to even consider putting "feelings" and "the grim reaper" in the same conversation. Intriguing and good.

I like it, that could be my theme poem for my profile picture :)

[Chemical Kitten]

Interesting idea! I love it. Never quite wondered what a Grim Reaper might be feeling before. I always assumed he was stoic.

I've dabbled in this subjects before. This is very well done. Keep it up :)
