Beatae Memoriae

In Blessed Memory to Those Who Have Passed Away All Alone

By Joanna Eloise Writer HPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I silently departed this world, leaving my family behind

Slipping silently away, making my sharp exit perfectly timed

Alone in life and isolated in death

I reached out for you, to have you near

Unable to grasp your warm hand, to calm my final fear

I was never perfect in life, I admit

But I loved you all so very dear

Accepting finally the great hand of fate

Allow my spirit to perpetuate

Take my lonely shell that remains from this place that I now repose

Free my spirit, trapped within the intense cold air

Leaving me in permanent darkness without a care

My shadow lingers upon the walls of this cool mortuary chamber

My teardrops have frozen and turned to ice

I want to go home now to god's paradise

Acquiesce and now lay me to rest
