Time for quiet please

           Everybody will say they have the answers ,
          When the question is what their really after.
          Can they see ? Is it real? Is the truth told?
          Within ones mind , body and soul.
          Was there any regreats?
          Hope no apologies owed.
          When you are judged , Only ask if
          what has been brought forth was ever in
          your control.For ones destiny can't be sold.
          More precious than gold , Down your road
          you must go only to find where it ends.
          Now you'll take your last few breaths
          watching the last few grains that the hour
          glass holds.Do you feel the coldness that
          has become apparent , It seems to burn the
          skin , Slowly the lights go dim.
          Game over , Theres no going back ,
          It's over.Do you remember how it all 
          began? Now, right here the jouney ends
          Here you'll lay 6 ft below for eternity
          this hole you'll stay. It came so fast , 
          Should have knowed it would not last.
          You only exist in the past .
          On this day the obituary will say
          " another one has past ..so long ...
            fair well ... the ship has sailed "
           As the last love one leaves the burial
           site and your coffin is lowered in
           the workers job can begin , Shoveling
           the dirt so the silence can begin!!!
