Death
Black roses greet me at the gate.
Their scent told me that I was home.
At last after a long and tiring journey.
I was home.
The soulless call to me.
My name on their lips.
Sleep—sweet sleep.
I smile and nod to them.
I am at peace.
Newbie’s wait for me to welcome them their new home.
Home is not as bad as the living make it to be so.
Black roses all around.
I am the one who greets the dying.
Flowers of the dead cover the walls.
Songbirds voice their sweet chilling song.
I am home.
Demons fill me.
I am eternal sleep.
Dancing in the garden of loving hate.
Singing a song in the ancient language.
This is my home.
My name is—DEATH!!!
