The Devil's Reaper

You live on the otherside of the day.
Waiting patiently to wisk,
the unworthy away.
Walking comfortably away from the light,
confident in darkness,
comfortable without sight.
To snap up innocents, go to any length,
the odor of fear fortifies your strength.
With this you think you have stolen and won,
condemned never to bask in the sun.
The job you do, you try your best,
banished to the darkness, just like the rest.
What you do you believe is right,
when was the last time,
you walked toward the light?
Jet black darkness confuses the eye,
I close my eyes I know not why,
open or closed it's only darkness I see.
Could this reaper be coming,
coming for me?
A mistake was made,
if it be me you take.
The light in my soul you shall never shake!
I realize it will pierce your darkness,
when I open my eyes.
Blow apart the underworld,
to your boss's surprise.
A shaken foundation frees the souls you stole,
you have failed in your job,
failed in your role!
From the depths you hear the agonizing howls,
for this mistake, doomed again you will be,
doomed to be a companion of owls!
No shadows to hide in from this white light,
I told you that taking ME,
would not make your night!

very powerful.... I almost laughed at the end though... because I can picture someone actually standing there with their hands on their hips saying "I told you so..." and the Grim Reaper just standing there in shock as he fades into the floor like the wicked witch of the west.... delightful piece!
