When it will be my time to lie down with my ancestors <br />Mourn me not; since it is the wish of my creator <br />I will go as a virtuous man passes mildly away, <br />And I shall whisper to my jaded soul to go <br />Whilst some of you being sad may say, <br />'Hold your breath not yet, NO! ' <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I beseech you when it is time, let me melt, go, and make no noise <br />No weeping, nor mourning, no tear-floods, nor sigh-tempests move <br />Let me leave life without profanation of our joys <br />Sobbing your sorrow to the laity is in vain; nothing to prove <br /> <br /> <br />Moving of the earth and into the earth brings harms and fears <br />I have reckoned what it does, and what it does mean; <br />But trepidation of the unknown, the colossus universe and its spheres, <br />And face God the ultimate judge pure and clean <br /> <br /> <br /> Copy rights 2010 <br /> All rights reserved<br /><br />Nero CaroZiv<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-it-will-be-my-time/
