Departure

I traverse the night alone
Upon this open road
The wheel of life is finally turning

For the first time in my life the future seemed so bright
But heading towards me was the final white light

I have departed this body, this life, this world
My time has come now
My fate has been sealed
I have departed, this earth, this place, this world
I look down on the wreckage
As devastation unfurls

My spirit saved from impact
Now floating in the sky
Below I watch myself die

Let it be known I felt no pain when I was taken away
Let it be known I did not mean to leave you all behind
