Life's curtains are drawn

When the curtains

To my life are drawn 

Surely most would forget 

That I was even born 

For them my words 

Of comfort may not be a thing 

But for those that are near and dear

Feel not that I am not here 

But wherever my afterlife 

Know that I am better than here

This I promise and you know me 

If I love and care for someone 

I'll never forget and leave them

Even after my death 

I'll find ways to watch over 

For that is what my life's about.
