Death

Here's a poem I wrote while I watched an old cartoon from my early childhood.
You may wonder where the inspiration comes from, more specifically, how it came to be. If this is the case, I assure you that we were not watching the same show.

Death:
my old friend,
the one to whom
I am most comfortable.
You are nothing
to be feared,
but one who can be relied upon:
on one we can depend.
You will never cease
in your love for us,
the one great certainty
until the end.
