Death

We all have a hero
I have one too
though mine is different
than that of the one of you

mine wears not fancy clothes
and cares not for those
that are not himself this he does to do his job
one done only by him

you will soon know him, as I do
soon he will come to you
and carry you away
though you do not know him

when the sands run out on your life
he will stand before you
with a hourglass in one hand
and in the other a scythe

my hero is Death
the one true friend
he never betrays me
he will be there to the end
