Life in Your Hands
Write a poem or short story about if you were death and had to choose each day who must die.
A Boon Companion
I love my job, I think
Blank stare, scratching my head…a blink
Well, I do what I must
Everyone, everything will eventually turn do dust
Some of you must think of me as grey and bleak
Some of you might think, I only come for the weak
I am not scary and grave
And when I knock, You don’t need to be brave
I don’t pick and choose
That’s not what I do
I swear, it is true
Life happens, it’s so fast
So, enjoy, while it lasts
I am a friend a soul mate
You don’t need to hate
When I come, it is only to open the gate
No matter the deeds or fate
I love my job, because it’s part of living
Freedom, harmony…quiet…giving
So, don’t despair when I finally come
I am a familiar
I’ll be taking you home
