Death is all powerful and as old as God. He can destroy whats around him, he can even reap a dog. If you see him you will soon perish. Therefore life must you Cherish. He can **** anything: Gods, Angels, Demons and Reapers. This is no ordinary killer this is the Grim Reaper. He assists in maintaining the natural order. His Reapers are nothing but a Boarder. He has a scythe, and a sharp sickle that he carries around with him. He can **** to relieve, out of pity or out of whim. He delivers souls to their final destination. (When he sees a being suffering) All he thinks about is his Termination. Anything the Reaper touches, dies. You cannot outsmart him, try not to be wise. The Grim Reaper is one of the four Horsemen, he rides a pale horse. If you see him coming, he will have no remorse.

goodbye
He is only visible to me. Projecting himself through my eyes, a stain on my retina, he is forever here. Conjured up by a child’s mind, native, inescapable fears, he has grown with me. Bigger, taller, stronger. Hidden in the deepest shadows, eyes bright, haunting me. Chilly arms engulf me, crushing my lungs and I can’t breathe and my heart races and I can’t do a thing. Egging me on, You can do it, you need to do it. He knows I will. He knows I must, but I don’t want to. I pull back, clawing at his hands Let me go! The tips of his fingers burn into my back, perfect little circles swirling with lines that lead me down towards the place I dread most. I see the looming door. Simple, wooden, warped with age, swinging, squealing on its hinges. I wonder how many secrets it has witnessed and heard over the years. Passed from one eardrum to another. Making hearts thud at the anticipation. The door to my demise. All else falls away. What can I do now but take another step forward?

My Own Boogeyman
Click. Click. Click. Up down, up down, up down. On, off. On, off. On, off. Florescent flicker. Light to dark. Do I really want to see that face in the mirror? Not tonight. Click. Down. Off. Black. Slumped down on the floor. There's an icy breeze through the window. But my face is hot. Burning. The hair on my arms is up. Attentive. Seems they're the only ones. Keep a hushed voice. It feels like a whisper could wake the world. It's shaken mine before. A second time wouldn't be surprising. Black ink on my face. Track marks, so to speak. Every breath is a catalyst for the next wave. If I breathe to calm myself, it acts defiantly, and I cry harder. There's an earthquake in my body. Shaking, trembling. It rattles my heart. If it's quiet, it's like it never happened. Pull the blanket over me. A towel, actually, but it'll do. It's like I've taken ten years away, stepped back into size four shoes. I'm hiding under my covers. In the black. In the silence. One, two, three... Watch out for Mr. Boogeyman. See, how it works is, if I can't see him, he can't see me. If you never see me cry, I'm never sad. If you never see me hurt, I'm never in pain. Click. Up. On. Light. Open your eyes and look in the mirror. Hello Mr. Boogeyman. Click.

Hello Mr. Boogeyman
they say when we grow up our demons will fade away but how come as I grow up all the monsters and the scary bits are becoming bigger and as malicious as ever how come as I grow up the devils find comfort in the piteous chaos that is my life how come the boogeyman created a nook under my pillow and continues to stay for as long as he wants he tells me there is no use being afraid of the dark for he will still be with me even in the light

the grown up boogeyman
The boogeyman sleeps on your side of the bed, whispers in my ear "you're better off dead." He fills my dreams with sirens and lights of regret, and kisses me gently when I wake up in sweat. You crossed the water, left me ashore, it killed me enough but you wanted more. You blew up the bridge, a mad terrorist waved from your side. You threw me a kiss. I tried to follow, but realized too late, there was nothing but air beneath my feet. Finally I felt beat. First you inspected me, then dissected me, at last you rejected me. I wait for the day that you will resurrect me.
