Momento Mori


 

I am the everlasting reminder

I am beauty in it’s most perverse

You love me, though you’d never admit it-

I have ridded you of troubles

I have ridded you of pesky familial obligations

You should be happy-

I am the one who makes room for creation

I am the brilliant conclusion all builds up to

You will go well, my darling-

I will make it beautiful

I do it for one reason

You deserve it.
