Don't get too close if you forsake immortality -
consider this your first wave of yellow warnings.
I am still my mother's child, I remember every thing;
so with carved words like these and my bragging heartbeat,
watch me as I seal you in all my letterings,
until you find Death on his knees, calling me a ***** cheat,
no grave can keep you buried if you leave it up to me
to adorn you in forget-me-nots and singing elegies.
