When Death Knocks At The Door Poem by Aqua Flower

When Death Knocks At The Door

Rating: 5.0


When death is at your door
and the sound of the knock is hard to ignore
when lost hope sucks out your oxygen
and death seems like your only friend
you dance with these thoughts inside your head
and think the unthinkable
Am I better off dead?
