Inevitable

Death

Is a funny thing.

Creeping up on you

When you least expect it

Or when you expect it the most, too.

Death is esoteric

A mystical stopping of the heart,

And an incredibly crude way,

To make your thoughts collapse.

Death

Is an abandonment

Of life.

A abhorent way

To crash and burn

Leaving a mass

of innihalation

In its wake.

Death,

Many times brought on

Prematurely and before the deceased's time,

Leaves the dead

Departed from the living

And inanimate.

Lifeless.

Death

Can be brought on

By the toxic and malignant

Knife,

The unforgiving and manic blast of

A Gun,

Or the cunning use

Of knots and

Ropes.

Death is

Inevitable,

Inescapable,

And sometimes,

To the desperate and despair,

A release,

A liberation,

An escape.
