Death - the elite devil🖤

It's a funny thing, isn't it, Death?

How it slowly consumes your soul,

Almost makes you wish you were never born

Shattering you into a thousand fragments, all torn

I've always been afraid of this elite devil

And deemed those courageous who fought against it,

Who looked straight into its eyes with their steely gaze

Never once deterring, never once fazed

It's hard to love someone, knowing that one fateful day, they too are destined to leave

It's hard to leave your mark, knowing that one fateful day, you too are destined to sleep

It's hard to do anything when Death stares you right in the face,

Try to run from it, but you won't win the race

Some say to embrace it,

Some say to ignore it,

Some say to accept it,

Well, I say - in all honesty, I don't know what to say

For I too, am nothing but a mere mortal

I too am nothing but a woman

Yet I believe in purpose, yet I believe in fate

Because it's a funny thing, isn't it, Death?

Embrace it, ignore it, or accept it...but you can't escape it.
