When Death Visits

I hear the chorus of angels.

Each note high and low,

mournful with remorse.

I see the humans in black,

the color of unspoken grief.

I see the tears, drops of

water of misery.

No one sees me yet I am

in plain sight, not hiding

even though it is my fault.

I go through this over and over,

it varies slightly each time,

but it is my tragic yet

powerful life.

I walked over to the coffin,

where bodies lay, forever

Sleeping Beauties.

I look at their innocent faces,

and I gaze upon the windows

to the soul.

I build the bridge of wishes,

dreams, sins, of the dead.

Bleeding hearts, death flowers

lay entwined this death as

always.

Who am I?

I am the grim reaper.
