Silver So Cold on My Eyelids

The bell tolls for my passing Put to rest in the moist ground So dark and reminiscent From a time when I was younger When I knew the destiny That carved its name into my chest One of uncompromising pain Dark visions and sorrow Silver so cold on my eyelids Payment for the ferryman when he comes for me I passed with honour and pride I did not fear this next phase Only embraced it... I had always embraced it... The only certainty Is the uncertainty of what lies beyond And where my dark soul will soar forever after
