The film has started.
The film has started.

The silent movies of my life
Unfolding on the screens,
Reveal unspoken terrors,
Unfathomable screams.

I want the film to end now,
And yet it keeps on rolling.
As I lie here on my death-bed,
The images unfolding.

The white overcomes the black now,
And overtakes the dark,
I reach out to the heavens,
And feel the deathly mark.

So ends the silent movies;
The flashing on the screens.
I find myself at peace now,
Amid the rolling greens.
