Awake 'Me' not!

 

Awake 'Me' not! surely 'I' take 'My' fill
Of deep eternal rest, forgetful of all ill

Awake Me not; surly I long for Rest
I urge you all to honor this request 

The Will is signed; it’s time to rejoice
Do not be grieved; for it is my choice 

When it’s the time to give up my breath
Do Not awaken Me into ‘mechanical death’

The diseased heart will turn into blissful ice
The light I see beckoning Me does suffice 

To draw Me closer to that blessed place 
Where eternal joy will this pain replace 

Heavens welcomes me with loving arm
Free of this Pain and safe from harm

No blinding veil to cloud my tired eye
Or bloody fever to silence my anguished cry

Awake Me not; I’m soaring high
And with ‘Peace’, I await to ‘Die’…
