**death's Song** Poem by Elizabeth Tyease Collins
**death's Song**
Death's song plays in tune,
in tune with lives he holds in his hands.
He plays of loneliness and depression to
come,
he sings of lost lives and death itself counting
down until the lives of mortals are all gone.
Death keeps his tune with a flute that he hides
behind shadows and tucks deeply within.
His heart turned dark years and years before the moon
was introduced to the sun,
and before life corresponded to death.
He cared for no one and was taken the job of
holding lives,
lives of the lonely, the sick,
and the heartache,
he was told he couldn't come back,
so he spends eternity sitting beneath the
shadows,
of the layers of dark corridors and dark passageways
of people's worst nightmares,
and the last thing you'll ever hear,
is the death's tune loud and clear.
Tyease this poem is really good i love it! ! keep up the good writing :)
Awesome poem. Well written. I feel as if most of us know the tune of death, i know i do.
Death holds lives in hands. Death is truth and it has a tune of loneliness. Again death plays with loneliness and depression. This provokes thought. Death keeps his tune with a flute. We hear its tune through shadows. An amazing poem is excellently penned.
WOW! Great wording, theme. Chilling and beautifully written. I wrote a poem 'Whispers' - very similar.Check it out! Keep writing- you have amazing talent! ! !
This is beautiful! Every single line! I love it! I never would have even thought about this, but it's such a great metaphor!
