I saw a shadow on the wall
Beside the bedroom door;
Beckoning me to follow it
Into the dim lit hall.
With dread I knew my time was near
And death had come to call,
So rudely in the early hours
No knock upon my door.
I hid beneath the counterpane,
A sheet above my head.
Unaware the reaper had won,
I was already dead.
