I close my eyes
and with it leave behind
all my pain and confusion
what's left of my mind

I close my eyes
and over is the wait
this mere physical body
and its expiration date

I close my eyes
and leave to you the memories
for where I'm going
I can live them daily

I close my eyes
with the greatest trust
because how I lived
you shouldn't weep and fuss

I close my eyes
and if you truly are mine
you will lift up my name
and I'll see you in due time
