Comes a Caller

HChristian74

By: Hunter Christian 

 

The page sat empty
The inkwell too
Feather pen broken
At half past two
The stove had gone cold
No story to be told
No literary fame
Nameless he remained
The lonely author's name
At quarter of three
With shivering knees
Death decided to call
The handwriting upon the wall
Death comes when it comes
Death comes to us all

    It hurts to be alone.
    This is so sad. Our only hope is that he lived a good life!
    Truth be told as you said,
    “Death comes when comes
    Death comes to us all”!
