I lay in this bedridden state, The pa**age of time slowing. A prayer of peace before I depart... One last breath. Light dissolves as this world fades. I escape into my thoughts. The distant memories of better times bring tears to my eyes. Trapped in this bleak room. A gallery of mechanical life, Incremental survival. I watch as time begins to cease. I watch as time collapses. Overlooking the past, the moments spent on earth, What fruits have I labored for? What crops have I sown? The prayers, the service, It has all come down to this. I've done the best I can. Made His holy purpose my only mission. His fire surrounds this heart slowly beating. This is the final harvest of my life.
