Peaceful Departure

This is one of my older ones; it is probably several years old.



All my while I thought life would

Be long in wait of going.

All my life I thought death could

Be long in wait of coming.

But now I lay upon my bed

With thoughts of death thick in my head,

And now I know the truth for sure

Of my own life's departure.

Outside the sun is rising

Like it would any other day,

But when it falls it will be carrying

My life up far away.

I cannot say that I am scared

Because in my heart I know

That I will be with him who cared

About my former life below.
