Hello people, I hope you liked the song. It just came to me one day, wrote it in a very short burst of inspiration. Hope it’s at least some good.

Interesting.

Utter crap!

Interesting, I’d like to actually hear it before I judge it as a song. As a poem, it’s very minimalistic and I have a hard time finding a meter or rhyme throughout most of it. Obviously, those things are not important in all poems, but I like them. One thing I can say is that I feel this poem is unfinished. I feel this way because it implies that the reaper does not equal oblivion; yet, if it does not, what does? Also, personally, excrutiation pain, death, and being cut open with a knife all scare me very much.
Oh, one last thing, what is at the bottom of the stairs? What stairs? Are they metaphorical or literal? The poem’s sentiments definitely show promise, but there is a lot of elaboration, or perhaps cutting that needs to happen before this poem becomes all that it can be.

“Utter crap!”

Why, thank you.

Well, first of all, apologies, I did not mean song as in music, but as in poem. (Not a native speaker so got jumbled there)

As far as a meter or rhyme goes, I specifically wrote it not aiming for regularity, though I did aim for it to have a good sound.
No, the reaper does not equal oblivion. The point of the song is that one should not fear pain or death, at least not in comparison to being forgotten. The poem’s meant to speak about immortality, about what the ultimate goal for our lives should be – being remembered, noteworthy, having done something of significance and meaning with our lives.

The stairs are metaphorical, meant to symbolize the descent into death, they stand for the final moments of one’s life.

I hope to hear the music of this… I admire this one really…

Well, there is none.
Sorry, I already tried to explain up there that I misspoke when I said ’song’.
I’m not a native speaker and in the rush of writing a post, I said ’song’ instead of ‘poem’.
It’s not impossible to make it a song, though, but it doesn’t really have very easy-to-make-music-for kind of lyrics.
