Hello Darkness Poem by Martin Greyford

Lying on my deathbed
Seriously ill.
Waiting for the final bell to ring.
The light in my senses
Is slowly losing power.

Just some few minutes left
Before I finally succumb
To darkness.
It will cover me to eternity
Until Christ comes for a second time

To judge the entire humans
Dead or alive
That's when I'll wake up
From this slumber I'm about to take.
People will cry

But there tears won't bring me back.
They will sing sentimental and lamenting songs,
I will never hear them
Or see what they'll be doing.
My eyes will be shut forever.

The curtains are being closed
Like a comedian after his performance on stage.
The bad part is that they are moving slowly.
Don't know how many minutes it'll take for them
To be finally closed.
