A Temporary Farewell

Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust

May your soul live wild and free.

Rid your spirit of troubles and pain.

Embrace the sweet nectar of peace.

Use the light in your heart to lead you to

Salvation.

The war is over brother.

The Demons have lost their hold

On your humble soul.

Let the wind take you back to

The days of smiles, laughter and

Love.

Rest your mind knowing those

You left behind are smiling at the sky.

Whispering personal farewells,

Knowing it’s not forever.

Look upon the faces of your people.

The tears of your memories linking

Bonds so unbreakable the wrath of

God couldn’t even break.

Death is a necessary evil and

It is also one we must face.

But soldier just know, those still

Rooted to the ground will live out

Your memory in happiness and

Patience in knowing a reunion is

Coming.

Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust.
