The Maiden:
Pass me by! Oh, pass me by!
Go, fierce man of bones!
I am still young! Go, rather,
And do not touch me.
And do not touch me.
Death:
Give me your hand, you beautiful and tender form!
I am a friend, and come not to punish.
Be of good cheer! I am not fierce,
Softly shall you sleep in my arms!

I don't think I could ever say everything I love about this, but hopefully my comment on dA will give you a gist of it.
But you've rally made something utterly amazing, I can't even begin to thank-you, really!
Did you know that yellow gemstones like the one on her necklace (especially yellow Sapphires and to a lesser extent yellow Tourmaline) are thought in legend and folklore as having powers of rather "spiritual" essence, such as clairvoyance, enlightenment, inner peace and astral projection. For some reason I find your use of that colour (be it intentional or not) extremely fitting! Amazing work. Truly! I am overjoyed that you've done this for me... just wow! I do hope that you're happy with the outcome because I sure am exuberant.
Love it!!!!

I am told, that you should be insulted for this wondrous picture, because making it so fair and sound merits at least some opposition to reinforce the majesty. But this person who said so is that Random Bastard, so you could probably figure out how sincere this suggestion really was. On to the piece itself, I must say I might be afraid of all that hair in coming in such proximity as Death is - which is a very lovely death I see, and probably one of your biggest artistic accomplishments I've been fortunate enough to have laid eyes on - and might be receiving Death as a guest myself, due to extreme hair-suffocation.
But again, great picture. :)
