This visitor is the topic of conversation in my life recently, However it has been for centuries. When he knocks on your door You know its time to go Even if things are left behind, there is no more time. I see that many fear this visitor Even praying that it wont come knocking on their door. But I'm waiting... I'm waiting. It's not that I'm expecting this visitor any time soon Nor do I wish to see him coming to my door step. No it's more like If he comes, I am ready. If my time comes it comes. So I sit here staring at my feet While everyone frantically prays and denies his existence I'm here contemplating what to eat next While everyone is scared that they might be next.

The visitor
This visitor is the topic of conversation in my life recently, However it has been for centuries.

So, my grandmother is close to death. Everyone is in tears while I'm happy that she will no longer suffer anymore. Is that selfish?
