Dear death, the great equaliser

Bringing us all to common ground,

The company you keep

Is but with empty skeletons,

You have stripped them

Of flesh and blood, silenced their voices,

You represent fear and uncertainty

Forever eluding our consciousness

But deep down, we all know…deep down

That it is you, that relieve us all

You relieve us from all we know

From the knowledge of good and evil

That cursed earthly vessel

That for a brief time, groped our soul.
