Procrastination

Each of us is born with an unknown sacred mission,
which Death interrupts a day before it is finished.
Death always refuses us that last day.
"You got what everyone gets - a lifetime" she says. "It's not my fault
you wasted the time you could have spent fulfilling your sacred
mission".

With a nod to Neil Gaiman's character "Death of the Endless".
