WHO HAVE I COME TO KNOW?

Who have I come to know?
Is it pain?
The torturer who came to my body to reign?
No!

Who have I come to know?
Is it fear?
That pest who ravages my mind like a spear?
No!

Who have I come to know?
Is it fate?
The master of outcomes I blame for my unfortunate state?
No!

Then, who have I come to know?
In truth, it is death.
And all it took was just one staggering breath.
