Death's wings

Star hunter

Death doesn't wait for you, death doesn't wait for me

It comes and goes, it takes us silently

No last words, no goodbyes

Just darkness and agony

Imprisonment for one, freedom for another

Sometimes it's inconvenience, sometimes it's relief

Fright and beauty go hand in hand

When death spreads it's magnificent wings

A scream, a laugh

A tear, a smile

Time is running out

Like sand in an hourglass

In the end, it's death

    A magnificent way to describe death, as a vulture in the night, unseen, never expected. Excellent metaphor. Well written. ❤
