Death’s promise

Death came to me on my deathbed. Seeing me, he put his scythe down and lowered his hood to reveal not a skeleton, but a human. 170Please respect copyright.PENANAkd9fxUCGqi

He caressed me and whispered in my ear, "I've decided against it. You have a lot of things you must do. Feelings that must be satisfied. Love that must be never forgotten. When you've completed that, only then will I take you. Promise me you'll do that!"170Please respect copyright.PENANA9rj6cpCEA9

I looked at him in the eyes and said, "No."170Please respect copyright.PENANAstRFX5zlEw

Death laid me down, put up his hood, took his scythe, and walked away with sadness in his eyes.

Memories
170Please respect copyright.PENANAQyPeKYwvsF
He stood there, not talking. Just staring... it's as if he didn't even notice. He looked down, a hole where his heart should be. Then behind him, to all the memories he had. He followed one and it led to a grave. Followed another, same thing. He came to the last one. He followed it through his early life, his middle life then his late life. And what he found was his lover through all of it. And he was happy. Then nothing.
