My Final Gift
It is now time for me to move on
Into the dusk, but also the dawn.
I will remain as the morning comes
As I’ve left behind a gift for someone.
So another may walk, may talk, may see.
Where their life was locked, I offered a key.
I am a donor to someone in need
My final gift, my final deed.
