Coming Back Home

C —coming back home, for one final time O—only thing left to do, lay here I’m dying M—my family round me, say their prayers I—-i’m heavily medicated, tenuously aware N—no more pain, just conscious illusions G—gravitas sinks in, along with confusion B—breathing is shallow, gasping for breath A—as night closes in, to accompany death C—can hear them say, dear god he’s going K—kisses on my forehead, faintly growing H—holding hands, helps bear the weight O—overwhelmed in love, there is no hate M—my life flashing past, I’m a child again E—each frame’s forever, it’s snowing! amen.
