The Day Your Silence Becomes Death
The time has come for you
The moment life divorces you
The day you can’t escape
The last measure on age’s tape
Day that robs your breathe
Day you can’t repent
Day when decay becomes a friend
Day you sleep beneath earth’s bed
Your haven for all seasons of toil
Your new home in neighboring soil
Your skin escapes the whip of the sun
Your soul to the creator return
Silence louder than a million chants
Silence life can’t grant
Silence that retires your dreams
Silence that prevails worldly seals
Be you master or servant
Be you rich or poor
Be you Jesus or Paul
Be you hero or villain
Be you slave or lord.
Come dance with roots of trees
Come dine with cold beneath
Come he who walk the earth
Come hither who life reject
Come embrace colors of ghostly scenes
Death if only you could see
Death is easier than A, B, C
Death knows all seasons
Death forever will be
Death gives no reasons
Death comes as it please.
