Who is Death?

Written by Taraji S.J Adams

By Taraji AdamsPublished 29 days ago 1 min read

Death is death but who is he

Or maybe it’s a she

Where do they take the souls that flee

They say death is a skeleton but is it even human?

Their just trying to make a conclusion

Do they carry a sythe or is it a knife

Where do they take the souls that once bread life

Death is like a shadow

it stays hidden

Not making a peep

Or they would seem like a creep

No one knows the truth

But the people want answers

A fake one they shall give

Until they find what’s hidden under what they can’t reach

For Fun
