Last Breath Final Thought

Breathing on a respirator with a plastic cover around my bed Wondering if in the morning I'll be alive or I'll be dead. Family members can't see me or give me moral support Because I could infect them - so this thought I must abort. Memories of my life are flashing thru my mind, and of All the beauties that I've come to love - i will now leave behind. I will not see their tears or the pains that they'll go through Or be able to comfort them with the words " I LOVE YOU " But like a turtle our bodies are just a shell - it's what's inside.' WHERE OUR LIVES DO DWELL " I'm going to another place where there is no pain And happiness will come upon me like the falling rain. I have a calmness that has overcome me and death is not what I feared it to be. There is a tranquility which is hard to explain - like floating On a calm ocean with the sky above and the waters below And you know which way you'll go! There are no signs of wind, rains or storms around Nothing that can pull you down, and that's when you know You're heaven bound. I'm sorry I must leave you but GOD needs me now But in your times of trouble you know I'll be around. © L. RAMS 042520
