Lullaby - The Last Dance

Curious to see you lying in this place

So still so full of nothing

And tortuous the memory of the last glance

Into the face of one so dear

So beautiful in life so hungry

Heart dispensing joy so full of god

So like an angel in word and heart and deed and life

So now in death

You passed away your hungry heart is martyred

For all but not in vain if not unchanged

Inheriting your hungry heart

So like a flower strong and vulnerable beauty is a gift

Swiftly taken away

The world and I have lost a light in you

Long before your time

And with no one to blame

From dust onto the earth into the earth

And back into dust again this is our destiny

I remember you and death hangs over my head

It’s a shadow on my heart

You wouldn’t want me this way

Passed away…
