Every turn I take it feels like death is watching me... waiting for me... calling me, and haunting me...
I smell his stench, I feel his claws, I even taste the putrid smell of him. I now see into the eyes that have taken those dear.
Times ticking and it cannot wait, I just hope I see those that have fallen to this fate.

Cool thanks for sharing babe :)
It would be cooler if you put in into more of a visually poetic form like free verse and break the lines up how you please though.

I wonder if you would arrange your poem into stanzas and according to its rhythm, felt, but in need of being emphasized... Thanks for your sharing.

Thanks for your nice comments.
I just wrote it in about 10 minutes :/. Didn't really think about it, just trying to draw out inspiration for a story I'm thinking of doing, and its about (obviously) death !
Not the nicest subject so I'm trying to get it in my head and puzzle it together.
another short one,
Every turn I make I know death is there, preying on my hunger for life,
eating the life out of my veins,and sucking every breath of air in my lungs.
I know there isn't an escape, I know this has become my fate.
Still I refuse, still I want to remain among the living.
No one can help me not even myself.
