DEAR DEATH



send one back
to tale the experience
scared we are
the hell we go
when you come for us
why don't you tell your ways?
why cant you light your room
so that we see
the hell we go
when you come for us
our loved ones
disappear in the unknown
a mystery never solved
who are you?
give us feedback
maybe the unknown
is neither dark
we need to know
mercy you have not
even our breadwinners
you take them with you
why are you mean
do you mind we know
a deal, can we make?
that you take a break
even for a year
haven't you had enough?
