NO MORE

My shadow still lingers closely,
Though only from behind. There's no more leading shadow,
All that's left,  is die...
   As I lead our way through,
 the turbulent times ahead;
My shadow hides behind me, 
until It knows that I am
  Dead...
As I look upon these stones,
scattered across this land,
Most of which I knew and even held their hand..
Without the sight to see, deep within each tomb,
I know now that what's left, 
is just coffins full of bones...
One potato, two potato, three potato four;
I'm almost prepared, to walk through that final door...
Five potato. six potato, seven potato 
    No more...
