Our Final Goodbye

From breath to breath
the life we have within
is amazing beyond degree
every time we breathe
we should thank thee
when you take our breath away
it's because you restore us to a new day
in a new place somewhere to play
the pain and misery that life brings
our last breath is our final goodbye
our family and friends gather 'round
they break down and cry
but their tears soon fade
as we soon become
the Long-Forgotten.

Returned to the dust of the stars.
