What is that solemn sensation of release

A thrust of a knife and thy heart may cease,

For the seeping darkness covers you slowly,

A mission by God, an act called holy.

Suffocate my soul that may kill the devils essence,

Though the wings without shade do assure of his presence.

His wings wide with a scythe in hand,

"I am here to but follow his command"

Oh Arael Oh Azrael I see you do not lie

Take me away to the sky, so shall we fly?

Yes we may for how humble is your kiss,

Am I to go to that bottomless abyss;

"Nay my lady cruel I see not your heart" 

"But smile now my dear, we are about to depart"

Ah I see, what is this boat I do sit on

And who might this be, a rower named Charon

He bows and grins wanting coins as pay,

I touch my bosom, "I have none" is what I say,

In shame he smiles towards Azrael,

Sheer horror and sting, I should call it surreal;

But as I went down that river known as styx,

My mind began to fog and I forgot those strong links,

Forgotten my Father, my mother and my swain,

For now I do not have to endure that pain.
