Death

January 3, 2013
By Anonymous

I've never been so mesmerized by you.
The way you just sweep down and carry us off.
You never blink your eye, so confident, it's what you do.
You're words pull me closer to you
I cannot back down now.
What I've heard of you just makes you more enchanting.
So why does everyone fear you?
I can look you in the eye and say "I am not afraid."

This is so interesting, I have never heard anybody talk to death as if it were something that could respond back. I love this poem because it is descriptive and very well put. Good poem:)
