just another poem for your mind. also if i did the french wrong please correct me.

Mort de Ange

No where to turn,
I've no where to run,
I can't hide this time,
Nothing to do, except face the loneliness,
Welcome this emptiness today,
I feel myself dividing, right down the middle,
I feel the hollow, deep within me,
The time has come for peace,
I must make peace with the loneliness,
Make peace with the emptiness, the hollow,
I need to welcome nothingness,
Or I'll die in anger, might die in hate,
Must make friends, with the loneliness,
make friends with the emptiness, the hollow,
Widen the void, open the void,
Fall forward, no fear inside me,
My end, coming loud and clear,
Fall through the black hole,
Walk through the white light,
hand in hand with,
Mort de Ange,
Hand in hand with,
The Angel of Death.

I went away, I stayed away, for far to long, no coming back now, I guess,
I’ll just fade away…" Daggered Reality, by: me

Ange de la Mort would be the actual translation... I'm still curious as to why the French 'gender' of death is female....

I leave that to the gentle readers to figure out on their own.

Pretty heavy poetry, very intense.
