Last Breath

From Those around,

I hear a cry,

A mouthful sob,

A Hopeless sigh,

I hear their footstep leaving slow.

And then I know my soul must fly!

A chilly wind begins to blow,

within my soul, from head to toe,

And then, last breath escapes my lips

It’s Time to leave and I must go!

So it is true (But it’s too late)

They said: Each soul has it’s given date

When it must leave, 

It’s body’s core

And meet with its eternal fate

Oh mark the words that I do say,

Who knows ? Tomorrow could be your day.

At last, it comes to heaven or hell

Decide which now do not delay!

Come on my brother let’s pray!

Decide which now do not delay!

Oh God! Oh God !  I cannot see!

My eyes are blind ! Am I still Me ?!

Or has my soul been led astray,

And forced to pay a priceless Fee ?

Alas to dust we all return,

Some shall rejoice while others burn,

If only I knew that before

The line grew short,

And came my turn.

And now, as beneath the sod

They lay me (with my record flawed ),

They cry, not knowing, I cry worse.

For they go home and I face my God.
