Eternal Rest: Poem by David Wood

It is over, it is done
My final race has just been run
No more early morning dew,
No more saying ‘I love you'
I've gone to take eternal rest.

The still heart within my chest
Once beat in tune with yours
Is now silent. So have no remorse,
For I will wait for you, just see,
One day you'll come and join me.

So shed no tears and feel no pain
One day soon we'll meet again,
And sparkle like stars in the night
Where love once more will shine bright,
And love once more will shine bright.
