A child is pure
A child is kind
A child is a spirit that shines your life
A boy thinks it's all a game
A boy fears the slightest of change
A boy knows that deep down he won't stay the same
A girl is beauty
A girl is grace
A girl has the wickedness in the smile on her face
A child grows
A boy knows
A girl becomes a rose
All shall once again meet
Where the shore's water meets their feet
Staring out into space; lost in a trance
Hoping, praying for one more chance
There's a place on land
Where an old widow stands
Upon their stone heads
She places the flowers with trembling hands
A feeling wraps around her
Like being held by those she lost
But suddenly it is opposite
It is cold, it's empty, it's numb like the frost
Deep in her diamond mind
She knows it's her time
For the call has gone for too long
Death is a call,
Death shall be her fall
Her diamond mind fights
But death's sword is sharper than any knife
Death is cold
Death is bold
Death carries the souls
From one world
To another
If you are searching for death
Then look no further than under your bed
For every time you turn 'round
Sensing that someone is around,
That something is lurking,
Waiting, stalking, know it is Her
Her who you fear,
Her who you dare to hold dear,
Her who you want but don't
Her who you wish to stay away from but won't
Death is a call
Death shall be our fall
Our diamond mind fights
But death's sword is sharper than any knife
Hear her call
Hear her heed
When you start to bleed
She is near
She sees the tears
She is sincere and still makes us bleed
A drop falls onto the ground
A jewel is added to her crown.
Her crown is dark;
Embroidered with crystals of those before;
It fits with the mask she wore.
Though she has no mercy when it's time,
She knows deep down that she should be kind;
For time is not within her control,
She always smiles upon all,
Old, young, an adult, or a child,
She tries to stay composed all of the time.
The looks of those around
When the clock ticks its final tok
She knows she was right.
She wished deep down she wasn't
For when she looks at their saddened faces
She wished she didn't let time beat her in the races
Fate is funny
Because you see, even though death collects
Fate plans think and unlike her doesn't feel
Death may have a diamond mind but fate
Fate is the mastermind behind.
A/N: this has to be the longest one I've written. Death/ grim reaper is symbolized as if it it was a person
