Dying Death

Strange tales now I see
Dying death sets free
What is meant to be


Just look deeper then
Dying death knows when
Final curtain span


Watch the glimpse that tells
Dying death speaks well
Cast that final spell


Write the last page here
Dying death frames cheer
A deeper plunge spears


To come is to go
Dying death now shows
Dance in ebb and flow


Be bold my dear heart
Dying death greets start
Ending splash binds art


This is our commute
Dying death refutes
Stillness is not mute


Speak then silence bold
Dying death grips cold
Transcend what now holds


Seek that stillness deep
Dying death brings sleep
My darlings don't weep


My soul goes home now
Dying death endows
Beyond why and how


At the final gate
Dying death drowns hate
Soul embraces fate


Do not grieve or fear
Dying death makes clear
Soul knows endless cheer


Sing and dance and play
Dying death now pays
Love's forever day
