What now?
I did my best
I came so far
But what now?
Laying cold on my bed
Holding onto my breath
Memories flooding my head
It's all going to end
What now?
Any regrets?
I've placed my bets
My fate was set
And what now?
What comes after death?
Who will I be next?
Who will I affect?
Is it going to rewind?
Will I go back in time?
Will it all be fine?
What will remain as mine?
This death I stand by
I've yet to say goodbye
I wonder who will cry
When they found out I've died
The endless struggles fade
My chain of thoughts remain
In the bed I laid
The game of life well played
Is rebirth just a myth?
Will God head my plead?
Will I forever sleep?
What has life brought me?
Was this what I wished?
Was it all for none?
Will life end in grief?
Can it be undone?
It doesn't matter now
I'll find peace somehow
As the last breath flees
I've completed life's vow
