Last Moments

As he lays in a state of frailty Our eyes perceive disease; cherishing the last moments he greets visitors Strength. They came together. Tears. Prayers Begging for him to stay He laid. He listened. He dreamed. Decaying Death was his cloud but not his pillow They break one after another. Hearts as glass Tears flooding the steps. Upon the altar. Cries in unity Who knew you had so much power? Sickness. The present haze. Speechless Sorrow clenches their throats. Enemies now friends. Together we grieve you Last droplets. Dew. Cast reflection upon our hearts Warmth encompassed by the chill In his last hours he was more More man. More heart. More spirit. More. Love He made us love his smile. Aura of peace. Our friendly Casanova That look. Fighting spirit Face midnight with courage Branded. The portrait of those eyes Sparkle. Love The lilies bathe your body now. Scented with oil. Anointed soul ascend You've earned your place by the father Happiness. Eternally (c) 2012 T.Y Lightbourne
