for my part

I am weak

the grace of the universe

guides my feet

of my own volition

I would lay down and die

but the purpose I serve

would not be and I

cannot let it go

no matter the fatigue

or my fading heart

for in the midst of the decline

my soul swells with

love

and there is suddenly no not being

there is no not doing

for I AM

and we are

for eternity
