Do Not Worry Child

My eyes now weary

With every day I find

It harder and harder to open them

My movements slow

I fear death is upon me

But I don't fear death itself

Do not worry child

I will see you again

In a glorious place

I am old now

My time has passed

Do not worry child

I will speak with you again

I will tell you stories

Of the new and of the old

Do not worry child

For death is not a punishment

My heart slows

And my eyes slowly close

Trying to get a last glimpse

Of the world of the living

The silver light of the moon

The star filled sky

Welcoming me to the heavens above
