Please

"But please, are you certain I have to follow?

I know your decision I can't refute,

but if my blooming life you want to swallow

you'll eat an unripe fruit.

I'm barely twenty, I just started working,

I'll move in with the one that has my heart:

our life hasn't begun and now it's murking,

you will tear her apart.

At least let me touch her one more time, listen

please, just for some more, please Death, let me stay!"

In Death's eyes I saw tears of pity glisten.

"You must come anyway."
