If She Cast Her Glance Upon Me

April 22, 2014

When I approach the hour of my death

I will not rail against the gods nor shout

But draw in joy the full and final breath

And never let the flame of love burn out.

I will quietly ascend to realms of peace

Knowing time is timeless and the years

Of the wondrous inner journey will not cease.

For I shall live again and love though tears

Attend me as I tread the upward way.

A hundred lifetimes nothing if She cast

Once more her glance upon me as I pray

And rest my head upon Her feet at last.
