I've seen more lives than you could fathom

The immortal life of a stygian phantom

I've seen the strongest of man crumble,

And only I could make them humble.

I've seen the broken learn to survive,

Just to die before they thrive

Good or bad when your time has come,

Ill be there when you succumb.

I am not in the pursuit of life,

Nor to rid the world of strife.

My only job to steal your breath,

create balance through your death.

I cannot tell you what to do

But with time I've learned some things are true

Do not live life full of regret,

This is the only chance you'll get.

And when you see the ones you love,

Remind them why they are beloved.

Time flashes by, moments gone by fast,

Every conversation could be your last.

Enjoy each moment, make it count,

Don't focus on the things you worry about.

And when it is all said and done,

Perhaps you'll leave the world a better one.
