You never know what's within
'Til Death stares through you with its optical hollows
And smiles at you with its lipless grin,
And your eyes blink as your throat swallows;
Your mind realizing you cannot win,
And that you, too, will one day see what follows,
I can't stand idly by
Knowing the end is nigh
So I sigh
And say goodbye
Beloved
