As long as you believe.

As long as you have faith.

You will always be let down.

But, 

There is one thing you can count on

and that is the promise of Death.

It will always come.

No matter how much you try

to stop it, to object to it.

Death will always come

because Death made a promise,

before you were born.

It promised that you would return to it.

You may not always stay for long.

Re-living a life that

Death will eventually take once more.

But, in one way or another

You will always come back

and Death will always greet you.

For it saves you a spot

in its cold, icy abyss.

A belief that will never fail,

a faith you can always count on,

a promise Death will never break.
