Sempiternity Birth

Sempiternity Birth At last, when the world is done In the final end of all your dreams At last to rest No more the veils of sorrows bitterness Slipped from the noose All the pains of your heart This life flow ebb relinquishes grasp To carry no more these burdens And so all the questions fade Their shadows irksome litany unanswered Floats away To the pointless hills of aspiration Where all thought matters not And see such grandeur of tissue castles Have come to nought This final sigh reaches to the unknown Goes out beyond any description Of matter intoxicated form And vanishes before those who carry on Without you There before all the stars you are freed Disentangled from such petty cravings Loosened at last from all your need In the borrowed time of eternity You pass from flesh To the ever open door of death Leave the earth in its slow struggling vibration Eternal now as you pass beyond With all the collected works of love And those in perpetuity carry on With you The birth upon your final breath Exhales within infinity
