A Letter to Death- The Misunderstood
Dear Death,
They have always portayed you with a knife
Stealing a life, never yours to possess
But I see you through sympathetic eyes
Looking past the lies, straying from their words
The public's verocity was not brought by your will
But the uncertain chill of insecurity
You may be nice, you may be kind
Yet left behind to ly in their fear
They'll never know the depth of your heart
They think they're smart, by assuming you're of little love or lack there of
They steal your emotions
And follow their notion that you end all beautiful things
But what if you are a phase
A simple step in an elaborate maze, but too tall to see over
They have always portrayed you with a knife
Stealing a life
No second chance
No backwards glance
But speak and I'll listen
beyond what they percieve
Sincerely, Kasey
