Death’s promise
285Please respect copyright.PENANAYasN9nB4wD
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. 285Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZbTWzj9YB

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!"285Please respect copyright.PENANAZeRZxRk6h0

I looked at him in the eyes and said, "No."285Please respect copyright.PENANAEfX3jNtoMJ

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

Memories
285Please respect copyright.PENANAYn2sYhjd9r
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.
