Embraced by Death-By Susan Thomas

Death's embrace
often a terrifying thought
as I lay there
waiting for death to take me
fearful thoughts run through my mind
death approaches
it's touch is surprisingly warm
gentle
kind
a pleasurable greeting
was not expected
more terrfiying
because life
had been cut so short
instead comfort was offered
he wiped my tears
reasured me
and lead me down a path
that led to
tremendous love
forgiveness
and hope
twas such a surprise
to find that death
was not fearful at all
but instead
like greeting an old friend
