Death was a cute boy
Eyes dark as the void
Pale skin white as snow
His complexion had no flaw
When he was born, his mother died
His father the boys involvement implied
But people couldn't blame an innocent baby
And after her death followed so many
As Death grow, so was his power
In front of his presence all of them seem to cower
Hate grew on them, but more did fear
No good fate came to those he was near
So he was sure he'd be forever alone
His heart he thought he'd dress in stone
That way he'll keep everyone away
And never again will he feel betrayed
After not long Life moved to the village
First time Death saw such an enchanting image
Her voice was like caresses of the wind
Lullabies, she smelled like gardenias and mint
He tried hard to keep his distance
Though in his nose always lingered her fragrance
Ugliness usually lies behind beauty
Unveiling her mask though wasn't his duty
When seeing her Death acted furious
But Life soon became curious
About the boy with the hood
Whose eyes in her heart everytime caused a flood
So slowly by slowly she tried to approach him
For quite a few time his defences stood firm
I'll have to do something she thought
Day and night for his aknowledge she fought
The villagers warned her about his curse
She thought to herself what an ignorants farse
How could such a man be considered a threat
When everytime I get close he's starting to sweat
Looking at him, Life couldn't stop
The urge to keep him into her grasp
The blush on his face was the sweetest
Thing she ever got to witness
Death on the other hand was confused
What about him made her amused
He wasn't handsome nor was he wise
If that was so to his rules he'd abide
But Death fell in love
Cause Life was pure like a dove
He couldn't tell her though, he was too shy
If she turned him down, he'd definetely cry
So he was happy just having her close
Crisis soon enough though arose
Life was slowly starting to get sick
When Death realised it, he started to freak
He couldn't bear to lose her as well
Life without Life could only mean hell
She was his only ray of hope
But now there was no time to mope
So he looks her deep in the eyes
Days with you were like paradise
Saying opposites always attract
That's only delusions that people enact
The most important things, I could never say
Cause it'll only make it harder for me not to stay
Me and you are not meant to be a pair
You bring hope while I only bring despair
Life tries hard to squeeze his hands
But Death before she does so his fingers retracts
He gazes at her for one last time
His stare is freezing, there's no more sunshine
He leaves her room
That's the life in which he's doomed
There's no more turning backs
His stone heart wall full of cracks
So he screams into space
What he couldn't tell her face to face
Goodbye my once friend I wish you the best
I need to find a place for my sorrow to rest
When after some days Life recovers
She reminisces his gaze that gave her shadders
She bursts into sobs and crimson tears
Alive came one of her greatest fears
She hugs his hood dark as charcoal
I caused in his pure heart such a turmoil
I bet you're out there laughing at me
Curse you Fate and my naivety
Life thought she'd be the life of Death
That's the path she carved and led
Fate had other plans sharpening her knives
Death soon would become the death of Life
