In a final moment
when light and sound begin
to wane and fade
I will be there with you.
When with a final sigh
the last breath taken ends
and you relax at last
I will stay beside you.
Those eyes that have borne
so many tears
will cry no more.
I will cry for you.
When softly steals your soul
from your body,
quietly, I will comfort you.
I will be there.
And when the glorious light
that is GOD finds you;
remember, you will always
be part of me.
