To you I shall Sing,
If only you hold my days within your grasp,
till I transcend, to sleep and wake
no more.
I shall leave a piece of me behind
kept in you.
So, that if I am truly to depart,
I shall not be forgotten
and in leaving myself to you,
may it help you to forget . . .
all the same.
A ghost I shall never be again
but a spirit finally
for the first time
reborn.
Free
