I Died

I died, my body now a lifeless shell, My soul departed, left this world behind. The end had come, a tolling of death's bell, The mortal coil unwound, no more to bind. Yet still my legacy lives on, a trace Of memories and love that I did share. A life well-lived, a mark upon this place, A testament to all who still do care. And though I'm gone, I leave behind a hope, That those I loved will carry on my light. For death's embrace is but a passing trope, A gateway to a world beyond our sight. So let me rest in peace, but do not grieve, For in your hearts, my spirit will still live. Date: 2023-04-15
