The Grim Reaper

by Pauline_Morris

I linger in the shadows And in the darkest gallows But in the sun I also reign Unfortunately I bring your loved ones pain But I am nothing to fear I bring relive when I am near To those that are terminally ill Their fate already sealed Even to those that are young With still their life story to be sung But the world had done them so wrong That filled with agony they couldn't go on I bring them release, from the human skin That they have been imprisoned in And some I touch without waring Those receive great mourning I am not God, nor the Devil like you've been told I am the keeper of soul's, a creature of old I am nothing to fear When your end comes near And your spirit's screams I hear I'm the gate keeper I am the Grim Reaper
