Spiritual

Whilst body is exhausted here 
and craves a rest from mortal fight, 
my soul bequeaths a part of me 
to shine an everlasting light 
for you, who bravely carry on, 
concealing rage behind your tears. 
No matter how it might seem now, 
my light will guide you through all fears 
for you shall never be alone, 
not even in your darkest hour. 
As you have always trusted me, 
trust now in this immortal power. 
I shall live on in you my love; 
your sweet breath fans the light of me. 
I vow to keep the faith with you 
in every joyful memory 
but in return I beg of you, 
do not concede to mournful thought; 
 your life, still precious, must go on 
 so our eternal peace is bought.

Everlasting Light
