I stopped here a while

Folk helped me smile

But my time it draws near

I say that without fear

This lifetime will pass

It’s growing en masse

This feeling to leave

Its real I believe

Cowardly perhaps

I’m lost without maps

To show me the way

As writing I here lay

Why do I feel this

Will someone me miss

My words on a page

On this virtual stage

My soul don’t feel swell

On past times I still dwell

You won’t really know

How pain it did grow

As my heart beats so fast

These words may be my last

I’m lost without kin

I did never not once sin

I’m proud that to recall

Despite the hurtful fall

Can’t now seem to breath

My name on a wreath

I close my eyes to see

Someone mourning me

Don’t shed a tear

I’ll always be near

Don’t ever regret

Or even forget

You were not mine

Nor me really thine

We all have to pass

Remember that lass

On a day to declare love

I was taken by a dove

In peace to now remain

While you express disdain

I feel no longer shame

So please continue your game
