ONE MORE STEP

ONE MORE STEP

My journey in life is over
The light has faded away 
And my heart sees only darkness 
So i will pause for a moment 
Then free fall into the great beyond 

Her voice calls out to me
It's no longer a whisper 
As in the days when my first love left
Now darkness howls 
And I am not afraid 

Take my heart and soul 
Drain the blood from my veins 
Let conscientiousness be my foe
And the arms of the sea
Lay me at its feet.

Wilford Barker.
