Forever Asleep (Eulogy)

Here I am,forever asleep, Here I lie,so cold and deep. The Lord shall take,my sul to keep. No prayers from you,I shall repeat. When I was awake,I tried, and tried. I've taken the time,and swallowed my pride. Here I am,so very cold, in the ground,and very old. If I were alive,I'd be so bold,and let you know,that you've been told. Here I lie,so short and sweet. Being down here,just ain't no treat. Please help me Lord, and warm my feet. If I were you,would sraighten up,or you'll be here,facing up. So,here I'll be,to rest and rest. Someday,I'll be,with the best. Say a prayer,and let me be. To rest alone,by this tree.
