Old Man Death

Old man death toils away day by day
unwanted guest at parties 
ignored salesman at the doorstep 
and the child's forgotten homework due to ignorance

Ignored and forgotten 

Tormented by the crass words of humanity 
who don't realize the importance of old men death 

Those who put their spiritual responsibilities on hold 
to live their carefree ways 
but as the hourglass slowly times out 
the mad rush for heaven's line begins 

Old man death waits patiently like the cat for the bird 

The mother who spends whole life protecting her child from old man visit forgets about her own appointment 

Or those who live in the fear of the only doorbell ringing 
are still surprised to hear the sweet sound of it’s tinkling 

And the doctor has spends everyday saving others precious seconds of their lives 
can't even save himself when death comes a knocking 

Old man death toils away everyday 
trying to find his own place
