Death at my Doorstep

Knock ! Knock! Who is there?
Opened & lo! Whom the world scares
Was at my door, with a smiling face
Ready to end my earthly race.

How kind and loving beauty is she!
Took all that pain to set me free
I wonder why the world calls her ghoul
When she has the purest soul

There she stood quite close to me
Softly singing my life's lullaby
Punctured my heart with her voice
Deathly sleep... Left no other choice

To calm all commotions is her art
It is time for the final depart.
She took my soul to her magnificent palace
Where I will rest forever in solace.
