Fragile now amongst it all
Frail to every moment passing
Memories fade fast against the backdrop of time
Only now remains
Gone from sight to soon
Age consuming mind
But not the soul
Familiar faces turn strange
Loved ones holding on to images past
Finally accepting the decay
A self moving far from grasp
Yet somehow free releasing all
Unreachable in this place
Alone but for God’s sweet grace
Finality in life’s last embrace
To rest at last
Farewell
