Don't disturb me I am writing
Dear death,
If you have to come you will.
I will not say I welcome you because that will be false.
I will not say that I will close my gates to stop you because that will be stupid.
When you come do it quietly without making a huge show because I have lived at peace with myself and with everyone.
I have no enemies and you can walk in with grace and style because I love my solitude.
And I have one last request.
Just do your job quietly and don't disturb me if you find me writing.
Let me finish my last poem before you take me away.
