Remind

Eyes close, The body falls, The soul lingers. The heavens call. Did I ask for too much? Did I have any at all? Did I even had a role? Have I fulfilled my purpose? The more I held, the more I lost. So I let it go, throw away this failed cause. My mind is ravaged My passion engulfed My emotions in conflict My moxie is fading The world will keep spinning Creation still existing Even as the children lay weeping And the shielded sing, cheering Did the sound of bells ever haunt you? The chimes of comfort had remind you? As you lay in your bed Sleeping among the dead With the past you had lead Have you ever heard of dread? Sleep now. Tomorrow will come, when you wake up From ashes anew Your eyes will open, once eschewed. As you age, History will pass, but it will come back For the next day is only a chance To try again the last dance.
