Now, let me die

Now, let me die
Now, Let me die
In the arms of death
Where shadows fear to tread 
There was a paradise once
Now it is burning, wild and alive
Assuming you know me
I kneel before Thy confronting
My past and my presence here
He is not so submissive
As life was and as death is
A mare neighs seeing me fall
Rising like a falcon, breaking the clouds
Summers of a day and winter of a night 
Narrates the song of a defilading heart
Who survives, who know
The memoir of a melancholy heart 
Ponders, deems and writes 
The song of living in death.
