Death Is Hanging Over Me - Nikki Sudden

Death is hanging over me

Though this room is seldom cold

Rosewood candles light the way

Along this tarnished road.

Death is hanging over me

In it’s empty covered shroud

Death is hanging over me

And it could never seem too loud.

It’s waiting in my arms

Like a perfect glimpse of white

A thousand islands twist and fall

In the morning light.

Death is hanging over me

It merely twists and falls

Death is hanging over me

But I can’t hear it at all.

My death waits there.
