The elderly live too long

still clinging to life, though their moment is gone.

Say goodbye to your family home,

now your children are gone and you live here alone

Time has been cruel,

left you a husk as the years accrued

Your mind betrays you

Your time is overdue

I am death,

Here to rip you from your bed

I am the end,

Feel my hand as it grips around your neck

No home but the grave.
