The Last Sunset - Onward

5 scores and 3 years my life’s seen

My minds last command is read to me No angel of death will take me away

my fear’s washing away

So still while I’ll rest

gaze upon the last sunset

Feel no cold, and I still see

no fabled guiding light

My life’s before my eyes

I’m ready now

My blood will flow its final round

Onward to death the only way

I’m not afraid

Last smile, last pure breath

fade with the last sunset

I shall go to a place

that I remember long ago

Soft endorphins soothe my mind

dancing shadows play

as I die.

Never departed or saw my body from above

a ghost I would not be No memories of heaven or hell

or of the Guff final passing

Open my new eyes

gaze upon the first sunrise

For now I’ll forget

the day I’ll see the last sunset

It’s unending, all connecting

never pausing, so relenting

Lives uncounted, days unnumbered

different bodies we live forever
