It is time to go.
Waited for though
Dreaded this moment.

Movement has slowed,
While the sole sound
Is my heart ...


How its beat is speeding up
To my worst of luck;
Time to say farewell
And reach another world
I've never set neither these two
Very feet on.


This feels more peaceful than I
Have thought before ...
... More peaceful.

Where's the dramatic music?
The final sentence,
It's all gone.


Images flashing;
Hallucinations
Happening before me.

For a period I knew it would come,
Yet I never thought I'd feel
So calm and unemotional.


Just a pale face in surprise,
Memories of this life
Flipping away like storybook pages
At these eyes;
And while the slow-motion arrives,
I realise that I


Haven't even packed the luggage,
Gave a good-bye kiss,
But I'm fully grown.

Have never been ready for this;
The final sentence ...
It's all gone.  


Oh Lord is this
Really happening so quickly
Or is it some silly dream?
I was really preparing for nothing;
So misleading
Believing this would never be occurring.


This feels more peaceful than I
Have thought before
More peaceful.

Where's the dramatic music?
The final sentence ...
It's all gone.
