THE WHITE SHROUD 12/2/2009



Fantasies, dreams and aspirations
Of when the time ends
The life that I survived
The life that I surrender
I’m afraid of the dark
Cover me not, I’m scared
Under seven feet of earth
Leave me not
In the dark depth beneath
Hold my hand, walk me through
As life begs to ebb away
Looking at the setting sun
Never to see it rise again
Colours bestowed by spring
Blessing my farewell
Cool breeze caressing my body
As my sprit breaks free
The face of a loved one
Holding my hand, carrying me through
Cover me not with the white shroud
And mar my vision
Of the face in gentle sleep
Lie me under the blue sky
As I turn into dust
Cover me not, all alone
Under seven feet of earth
The burden will stifle me
Loneliness in death
Will sadden me
Come with me my love
Cover me not, let me be
