Silent Sighs

There is a place where man must go
to abide forever, and travel alone
When like a flower, life withers and dies
leaving this world with one silent sigh
Oft forgotten.... but never is lost
into the light and torrent be tossed

With the final closing of my weary eyes
the silent sighs and tearful good-byes
No stone be cast to remember me by
only the love shared, while yet alive
Those I treasure I surely shall miss
leave me embrace, just one parting kiss.
