The Sad Song of the Dying
February 28, 2011
The sad song of the dying-
Is not quite a song at all
It’s the rasping of their breathe-
As their chest begins to fall…
The sad song of the dying-
Is quite a sight indeed
The bright eyes, the subtle wisp-
As their soul is being freed…
The sad song of the dying-
The surly, poignant tide
Of life that pulls the heartfelt tear
For the brave one that has died…
