Final Act
Darkness, fear
Of approaching death
The final act of life
Holding on by a thread
No one cares, alone
Not to end this way
Struggling, fighting
For every breath
Calm voice, warm hand
Don’t be afraid
You can go to sleep
Just step into the light
Curtain closed

‘Final Act’ is deeply moving…reading your poem I know I can one day “step into the light”…I know I won’t be afraid.
