A poem for everyone that face a terminal illness. I hope this provides some courage (from an 18 year cancer survivor that was given 1 year to live.)

 Dusty Silence
By Jim Stewart  c 2016
Dedicated to my friend Ronald Lee Young

 

Sometimes when I'm in a room
All by myself.

The silence seems to talk to me
Like a dusty book upon the shelf

One day I'll turn that page, I know
But it won't be today.

No today I'll enjoy that silence
And wipe the dust away.

Ashes to ashes… Dust to dust. We need to hold off the dust as long as we can. I think your poem conveys the mood quite well.
