Poetry: Death

I accept you somehow
Though I don't know when
Shall I exist
to see my end?
You enter my mind
And tear it apart
I live through my world
With you in my heart

I await you willingly
Fore you can't be escaped
And when you want me
There's no hiding place
No second chances
Just one last breath
No one to stop you
You're nothing to test

Death, you don't fear me
Nor do I you
I'm yours for the taking
No matter what I do
Your counter is life
And that I don't like
You seem much more appealing
Than darkness or light

I live in the shadows
Alone like you
Awaiting my time
To see what I can undo

    In the sweet, early hours of morning,
    my first breath was liquid,
    a gasping, choking thing, and then I cried,
    loud
