I like "Perhaps" because it takes me to a quiet and somber realm but never reveals fully who the speaker is. Certainly, the answer leans toward the speaker being "Death," but if she isn't certain herself then why should we assume anything more definitive. Thus, the whole piece seems a mere brushstroke on the universe's canvas.

Thank you John!! The speaker is based on a very real creature, but as you know I love mystery and confusion!!
