And when death finds me ...

And when death finds me, I hope it whispers, come now, the fight is done, and takes my hand gently like an old friend who understands why I'm so tired. I hope it says, you've carried enough, let me hold this weight for you. I hope it promises, here there is quiet, here you can rest.
