Poetry from Emmanuel G.G. Yamba

~ When I See Death ~



When we cross paths

I won't even be scared

Rolling up my sleeves

And preparing my fist

I'll join him into a fight



When death comes for me

I won't beg on my knees

Crying for a chance

For a life he didn't give

But hit him in the face



For the hurt that he caused me

Taking my loved ones from me

Emptying my house of family

Leaving my life lonely

And ending all my gravy



I'm gonna unleash my anger against him

Knowing fully well I will not win

But for him to taste small pain

That is experienced by mortal beings

Before taking me with him
