ADIEU

I sit here in this moment, paper and pen in hand;
thinking of the day I shall inhabit that polished box.
The hour when I shall sink before every eye into the ground,
and their spades will clothe me in a shawl of rocks.

Many hearts hold hatred and bile towards my person;
yet I have these beautiful roses upon my chest that give me comfort.
But I depart with open clouds and the glaring sun,
and so ends the myriad of tribulations which I suffered.
