Death

all will face death

this is a certainty 

there is no escape

from death's sea

we'll crumble to dust

beneath the ground

we'll be ever buried

in an earthen mound

in darkness we'll lay

for eternity

we'll not have

a light with which to see

death is permanent

death shall come

death is waiting

for everyone 

at any moment

we could be called away

called away 

for an infinite stay

death shall knock 

at our door

it may well knock

this day upon our door

the death knell 

yes it is true

the death knell is ringing

for me and for you

no escape 

no chance of a way out

the endless caravan of death

is ever about
