I feel a breath upon my brow.
my spirit friends surround me now.
Cobwebs flutter across my face.
then disappear without a trace.
A kind hand takes mine in its clasp.
to comfort me as I breathe my last.
as friends appear, I see them so clear.
the ones I hold, oh, so dear.
They've come to help me thru' the door.
to the place where I'll be alive once more.
They fill me with love and sweet elation.
with peace and a knowing of my salvation.
As I go forward, floating and free.
to meet my God and my destiny.
And to finally know my reason for living.
The lessons I learnt, and the ones I didn't.
but it matters not as I did my best,
and I know my life was truly blessed.
with love and laughter and joy so deep.
that the memories I will forever keep.
And when it's my loved ones turn to pass.
I'll be there to help them with my loving grasp...
