Epitaph

by Keg - Leo

These words shall be burned
into that cold grey slab
of lifeless material
When I pass away

'Here lies the empty vessel
once radiant with life
who went through the darkess days
and the most painful of strife'

'He knew love and happiness
and stood for what's right
He had no evil in his ways
and did not follow the night'

'He died of an empty heart 
Sure, he had passion and talent
but none to share it with
a tradgedy I'm afraid'

'May he rest in peace 
and find better days
for no longer will he face
this world of disgrace'.

This passage shall be burned
into the cold grey slab
and may it be forever
my Epitaph
