Times up!

Times up!

Shrouded on a bed of stone I lay,
Cold and lifeless I hold heaven at bay.
It comes for me in blinding light,
I refrain with grit in astonishing sight.

I have things to do, my days had just halted,
My breath was taken without me being consulted.
I had so much to live for and so many plans,
I lay in the dark now with no feeling in my hands.

No rhythm and no heartbeat,
No more dreams, no more chance,
No more dancing in my bare feet,
No more drama or romance.

No more exquisite sunsets,
No laughter or charm.
No more loss or regrets,
I am now free from harm.

Have I really lived my life?
Have I enjoyed myself?
Have I fought for all that I strived?
Regardless of money and wealth?

Truth is I never knew,
I took for granted each day,
I want to tell my loved ones I’ll miss them,
And now I don’t know what to say.

An exquisite sunset awaits as your lantern is extinguished to give rise to god's light.
