Before the Curtain Falls
Before the curtain falls, when my heart beats no more,
I hope to depart for a principle,
A belief that defined my journey,
For what is life if not lived for purpose?
I know I may leave before my time,
The shadows whisper of their depth and finality.
So much I longed to achieve,
Dreams left unfinished, moments left unsaid.
Yet, I’ve made peace with the inevitable,
Wiping the last tear from my weary eyes.
To all who carried light in their hearts, I loved you fiercely.
In the event of my demise, remember me whole.
