Close To You

CLOSE TO YOU I never took they time to understand the nature of friendship Now I lay on my back, my face looking up in the heavens Fully on a tuxedo, on a Rolex watch and flowers in my hands An imagined beauty, you all are, gowned with black outfits Fare the well, you all sound nice as you wave me good bye Ashes to ashes and dust to dust, as I proclaimed I feel closer to you more than ever My maker is waiting; I hesitate as am wheeled to the cemetery Slow pace, you all walk, so as not to disturb my sleep I feel the peace, such consideration as you all witness my final battle. Am now gone but I still linger for the intimacy and closeness that I once felt Am closer to you more than you can imagine.
