"Dear, God of Death"
As I sit here waiting for death to arrive,
To touch me with it's horrendous hands.
Where should I run? Should I run?
I do know that this time will come,
But who would have thought,
How fast-paced life can be.
Oh, God of Death, spare me, free me,
Please grant me this wish.
Let me live for awhile, bestow me this life.
I'am here and I won't run,
Just spare me from this death,
For the people I love the most,
Won't surely take the sudden bereavement well in their hearts.
