Enough is enough! I am taking this now, and you're not getting it back!

"Death why are you oft’ portrayed

As some grim reaper leading to a grave

In fertile fields reaping is a time

That is a culmination of growing all that’s fine

But for man you conjure up all that’s dark

As a shadow you wait or even mayest seek

To take each and every one, by one, away

Whether old, or in our prime, or young

Death why are you oft’ portrayed

As bleak and lurking, making all afraid

When all that causes grief you take away

Is it grief that I wouldst hold on to every day

And fear that death will take from me right here

Oh death! I would cheat you here and now

And voluntary, surrender all I own; I vow!

But wait a while, I do hear me say

Until the reaper nears, then I will, at the very last

Cheat him of his deathly grasp

Cunning yes but do not be deceived

He may well find me unprepared

And wrest from me my life, before I die

So I look behind my back; and fear

The reaper; dark, foreboding, black

And perhaps; already near?"
