The world begins anew.

Breaking the darkness of the night,

Silence through and through,

Weighted down by might,

Heaving in one final breath,

Looking to the East,

Greeting thy ol’ friend Death,

Yearning for release,

Take me from my corporal form,

The man I am no longer,

Sing to me- my course transform,

If I were only stronger.
