Night has fallen
cozykaye Jan 2019
The Sun has set
The Day is gone
In this barren land
Nights are long
For in endless Nights
Come endless sleep
And with that – eternity –

Warm Embrace
cozykaye Feb 2019
I find myself
On a path of white
The snow beneath
Pure and light
The wind is harsh
Yet, I not cold
As the Sun shines bright
And in His warmth
I find comfort.

When Death Comes Knocking
cozykaye Feb 2019
Hello my name is Death
I am no saint – I must admit
You curse and scorn my name
But you cannot wash away
The truth of life I bring
At which all must end and die.

Snowy days
cozykaye Jan 2019
Here I stand.
In the snowy ground
My cheeks are red
My legs are stiff
To cold to speak, to move
How long must I wait
For you return?
A day, a month, or two?
But here I am
And here I wait on you —

A Thief in the Night
cozykaye Feb 2019
He comes swiftly – furtively
Like a thief in the night
An unwanted visitor
Bringing no gifts – but freight

He knows nothing of boundaries
Sparing no one in path
He comes to steal the physical
Which is thy breath –

The master thief – indeed Death
Striking when least prepared
He takes all that you have
Leaving none to spare – truly feared

— The End —
