Revelator - Ballad of the Wandering Reaper

   / @revelator-rev  
My Lyrics:
In the alley where the wind whispers
and the shadows clasp like cold hands,
the wandering Reaper walks,
with footsteps no one truly hears.
She carries no haste, no resentment,
just a book of names she leafs through in the dark.
Every page is a breath,
every line a fading memory.
“Dont fear me,” she says to those who see her,
“I dont steal, I dont tear, I dont break.
I gather what time has dropped,
like tired leaves in an endless autumn.”
Sometimes she smiles,
a smile as subtle as the blade she doesnt show.
She knows that men curse her,
but they call her anyway,
on nights when pain weighs more than the body.
And when she finally places her hand
on the shoulder of the last traveler,
it isnt a farewell, but a return:
the circle that closes,
the door that opens,
the silence that sings.
“Dont fear me,” she says to those who see her,
“I dont steal, I dont tear, I dont break.
I gather what time has dropped,
like tired leaves in an endless autumn.”
Because the Wandering Reaper
isnt the end, but the guide who accompanies
beyond the border that no one remembers
and that everyone, sooner or later,
must cross.
