"I see the light"
Your wife bitterly cries  
Go to the light
I love you so much baby
Go to the light,
Please go to the light

In yourself you hear her.
You trust her.
Nothings here.
Nothings there.
Nothings good.
Nothing's bad

You're peaceful
You're resting
You're floating closer
And closer
And closer
To

The light

You've entered the light

Outside
The nurse registers 10:25 am time of death

Inside,
The light  Burns
The light burns as bright as snow

It Hurts
It Stings
And it's blurry

You start to clear your eyes and you make out a field of corn,
Crotch high
Feathered at the ends

Trees come in from the sides
And you see it's a beautiful sunny day,
The Clouds are out
But they're few
And how pillowy white they are

You're eyes clear a little more
And you see him,
Dressed in white
Coming towards you

You make out his face
And you see by his walk that it's him

You're heart burst so badly that it hurts
The kind of pain that breaks you down to your knees and immediately you cry

You cry hard and you cry loud
And you cry fast

The joy of knowing you made it overwhelms you so entirely that you cramp up into the fedal position
Finally you say sorry lord

I never deserved any of this
