Deepest Sympathy

I lay silent and still in thick darkness. 
     The smell of death fills the air.
      I feel cold like death just gave me a kiss.
     A subtle kiss from the dark warrior itself.
      The feeling of a thin string runs through my fingers
      tangled in between my my still nerves.
      One pull of the string will sound the bell of life.
       Then again I will see my children and my wife.
       But it is far to late I've taken to long.
      Hopefully God will forgive what I did wrong.
      I am fading into just a memory.
       The end, good-bye and deepest sympathy.
