The day that death came

  The day death came 


***an ode to who we were 


The air was calm and still a cool

The day death came 

The machines in the next room sang a song and it came true,

The day that death came 

We said our goodbyes with hate in our voices 

The day that death came 

Our disdain for each other got the best of our choices

The day that death came 

We honored you the best we could

The day that death came 

We led you to the angels like we should 

The day that death came 

The graveyards were already full

The day that death came 

With all the bodies of who we used to be

The day that death came 

I stepped into heaven on butterflies bloodied ashes,

The day that death came

My feet were cleansed by all the tears shed

The day that death came 

By all the people I used to be

The day that death came
