A Letter To Death
  
     I read a letter to death today
Written by someone who’s dying
And after reading it, uncontrollably
I just began crying

It shook me to the core
It was typed perfectly neat
Very few words, the author
Kept it very short and sweet

Unlike my poetry
This letter didn’t rhyme
But forever now
This letter will be etched in time

As I write this down, I realize
It will also be forever etched in my head
No I don’t think that I will
Ever forget get the words that I read

They were as follows—Dear Death
I’ve met life and he wants me to fight
But I’m so weak, can we meet
That was it, tied in a bow nice and tight

I wish I had never read it and now forever I’ll
Think of this person and their last breath
As the words that were written echo
From A letter To Death
