And So We Danced...
Dear Death:
For decades now, you and I seem to have been on a parallel path. Regardless where in the world I was found, you were always hovering close by, like a damn vulture.
Whether the sun was shining brightly, or the storm clouds raged and bellowed, you were there whispering your lies in my ears. Unlike a fair and righteous man, you always waited until I was down to attack. Too much of a punk to face me, yet I held onto Life, sometimes by the skin of my teeth.
Like a disease that goes into remission, then returns with a vengeance, over and over again, you hovered, 'Til my resistance, strength, and sanity was depleted.
And then, you and I danced one fateful night. You led, and like a lamb, I followed, too weak to resist. I was in great pains, and mental anguish, and felt my grip loosening.
And So We Danced
