And it stared at me again Dead in the eyes But I avoided its gaze reluctantly Once again Hoping maybe I could avoid Its tempting hand Hoping maybe I could escape Its eternal grasp When hoping for these things Only seemed to prove my ignorance— My naïvety.

Death
And it stared at me again Dead in the eyes But I avoided its gaze reluctantly Once again Hoping maybe I could avoid Its tempting hand Hoping maybe I could escape Its eternal grasp When hoping for these things Only seemed to prove my ignorance— My naïvety.
