Slipping silently into the blackness,
The light fades. Eternal sleep takes
Its hold, wrapping its ice cold fingers
Round the spirit and soul.

Lie quiet oh my soul, linger on
The edge between life and death
Just a moment longer. Holding
To the quiet sweet memories of
Years past.

Lie in sweet slumber, shrouded
In the deep folds of eternal silence.
Rest, oh my weary heart, let the
Maiden of darkness wrap You in the
Folds of her long flowing
Velveteen cape.

Take comfort in You eternal rest,
As You lie in the dark nether realms
Where neither sun nor noise shall
Cause not a ripple on the lake of
Eternal rest.

Great write!

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.
