Any moment now my life will end
Any moment now an angel G-d will send
I stand and wait with open arms
For death to come but not to harm
The little I have left, my anger my guilt
My legacy my life that I have built
To re-take a borrowed existence
That compare to no time and distance
Here he comes dressed in black, ready for fight
A gleaming knife catching the early mornings light
This is it, all that I have been living for
I fall to my knees and on to the floor

This is really strong and meaningful. "For death to come but not to harm" That's a really interesting line; death is generally associated with some sort of pain, whether it's the person who has passed away or others who will grieve. It was well written and flows well; the rhyming was good, too. I like it :)
