The Eternal Rest

THE ETERNAL REST

In darkness there they lie
Silent and still.
No more worries or dread,
No more problems to be had.
The eternal rest is needed after a lifetime of pain and hardship.


In stillness they lie, a life eventually forgotten
In time, memories will fade away and
Soon the bodies will disintegrate and be no more.
We return to what we once were, dust in the earth.{/c}
