Mr hooded man stood there <br />Your face is hidden but I know you stare <br />You eyes are piercing and you scare me so <br />In my room you stand and you don’t go <br />You whisper words I can not hear <br />But these words you speak are words of fear <br />You take my mind and read it through <br />You know my life and what I do <br />I hate the way, that when I cry <br />You visit me in hope I die <br />And because of you I now fear life <br />The slumber air you cut with knife <br />I can not rest, I can not sleep <br />Happy thoughts from me you keep <br />You wont step down until I give in <br />But if I do that, I know you win <br />Immortality is what I need <br />But to live that long just shows my greed <br />So should I just surrender to you <br />Mr Death, you know what to do.<br /><br />Pamela James Blackwood<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mr-death/
