Death

She wishes she was human
Instead of this cold-hearted creature
She steals babies away in the night
Stands over young maidens as he enters again and again
Smiling into their wide, terrified eyes
She wants to feel love
Not be the cause for loss of it
All she asks is for detoxified lips
An uncursed soul and trembling fingers
She has seen too many lives slip away
She felt the touch of lips on
Summer-heated fevered foreheads
In this never-ending waltz she dances
Without a partner, alone, always alone
The child of Light and Shadow
The scales, the Avenger, the Day and the Night
Walking through Time never running with it
Not even love can defeat her
For dead is her own soul
