Array ( [sid] => 75554 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => death doesnt know [time] => 2004-12-13 07:15:04 [hometext] => getting sick of watchin all my friends drop... [bodytext] => Death doesn't know age
its just a number on a stone.

Death doesn't know names
just written on something cold
and the shoutings when loved ones wake alone.

Death doesn't know love
just memories from stories told
by loved ones left to grieve alone.

Death doesn't know patience
it takes when it has urges.

Death doesn't know loneliness
it comes in numbers.

Death doesn't know tears
for it too cries alone.

Death doesn't know innocence
it takes the angels, even the littlest.

so many things death doesn't know
so many times it has come knockin at my door

One day I will let it in
and share with it, teach it, let it know
all the things it still doesn't know.

I will give Death the dates,
the times
the places
of all the loved ones,
it has taken
I will share with Death
every name
of every soul,
it took before their time.

I will give the tears,
it has caused
I will let Death know
even though it may not feel
those it takes from,
is the worst steal.

I will look Death in the eyes
and beg for it to stop
afterall, with so many lost
heaven is getting full.

But all of these things, Death still doesn't know..
