UNKNOWN

Ever so carelessly, you ignore my entire

Being and destroy thoughtless opinions

Of me. Even so, I continue to pest and

Cause thunder to boom inside of your head.

Those wilted flowers will caress your legs

And with one uneasy smile, I admire you

Those thorns wither and twist around

Your arms. I will not scold, I behold your

Truth.

And when it’s over, I’ll give you a cold hug.

For I am the lurking shadow,

I am the unheard footsteps and the candles

That flicker as you rest.

My crown will never falter,

For I am death.
