Silence...the knell rings softly,breaking the whispers of the dead
like a trance,my feet carries me at their call..
beckoning
are these my last steps?
That which sounds so peaceful
could actually be so grim
as to announce a dead mans path
It is a bell we all must hear
for it is a walk we all must take
to meet our maker
"Hark,be peaceful,dear child"
it'd tells me
if a Knell had words to say
"it is your time to go
to rest
on this day"
Blood
and flesh
and bone..
All one day fade to dust
whether six feet beneath the earth
or on its upper crust
We all must die
it is the way
of life and its great plan
....but what I wouldn't give for a little more time on this land...

- Title: Ringing of the Knell..
- Artist: Ghoulish Gourd

Description:
Today,I was thinking of everything that's been happening...and of one of my friends.Many people are afraid of dieing...I'm no different,I love living and wish it could be longer than what this mortal body offers....but in the realization,that no matter how immortal we think we are,in the end, we all must take the final breath..
..I do not care what you rank this,it's alright...sometimes people just like for their words to be read,to get their thoughts out there.. - Date: 03/13/2011
