Time.

Is the never-ending ravager.

Time.

Is the all-consuming poisoner.

Time.

Is the death affirming pillager.

Time.

Is the fearsome executioner.

Time kills

All consuming

Time consuming

Not withstanding

Deaths entombing

Dying from birth

My last night on earth

Time kills

The grave awaits in clay holes dim

Under the roots of nettles grim

Hide you may. Escape you can’t.

Don’t seek hours time cannot grant.

Go to sleep and never wake up.
