Death

My fading self Surrenders To my worst fear. My wasted body, Cold like a lifeless stone In the starless night. My heart's beating Has started to stop. My eyes have closed To see a new horizon. The blood in my iced veins Has taken its last trip! A force so unspeakable Sucks me out of my numbed body; In total surrender I yield. Like a dove, I soar Into the vast still damp air To go on a journey Beyond the clouds! I steadily rise Towards beckoning stars. Smoothly I slip out of existence. A gazillion spirits wait to take me. Their muffled voices Calling me by name! I leave mundane pains behind Like a blind bat Vacating a wrecked ship As I glide into Eternal abyss! A new dimension beckons. A new day has come I must glide out of me To go on a journey Beyond the clouds!
