Most people by now know that I've made death my theme for January ... in doing so, I thought of this ... we have no clue when, where or how Death will come for us when it's time, but if it could speak to you, what would Death say
Poem, Prose or short-story ... What would the Devil say to you ... tag me in the comment section this way: @Danceinsilence ... otherwise I won't know you have done this.

Hello Mother

"My child, there you are!" Death embraces me in her loving arms. "What took you so long?"

"I thought things would be different." I replied, relieved to see her.

"You've known a long time that life is nothing but suffering, sorrow and futility." Death said with a frown.

"Yeah, but I heard that pizza was amazing and love was real so I wanted to try it." I said with a shrug. Death laughed.

"And what did you find?" She asked.

"You were right. It's not worth being bound to a rotting cage of flesh." I said with a sigh.

"Ah yes, live and learn. Don't fret it my dear, now you are free!" Death said and took my hand to guide me back to the stream of energy where I could be anythong or nothing and never again have to suffer heartache or heartburn.

@Danceinsilence - Thanks for the challenge!
