|| DEATH GAZE ||

 

It was like seeing the silhouette of Death standing across a river of souls oblivious to his gaze. Souls that do not meet Death's eyes because one doesn't return from the abyss after meeting them. But today I felt his gaze fixated upon me like I am a curious little creature that baffles him. But little does he know how I have roamed in graveyards for long hours to stumble upon him making it appear as an accident. Today of all days I wanted to avoid his deadly gaze, avoid his presence, avoid his existence. But has anyone on this earth ever been able to deny Death, then who was I to do so? Obsessing on Death I couldn't help myself but steal a glance at his dark fixated gaze whispering some verses to which I couldn't help but wonder, how am I still alive? They had chanted to me that Death always knows when someone wishes his company and never lets his seekers down. Then how did I escape loving Death? So did I just really cheat the Death himself?
