Only This

When you stand against the sun

And feel those final rays

May you fight just that drum

In all your mind search your days

Ask only this;

Have you fought

With all your heart

Truths to be and those of not

With all your power leave no part

Have you loved

In all your head

Without the world

Without the end to fear and dread

To the end by cold ground and fist curled

And when you meet that yellow light

May you be content to fade

To disappear in flesh, never in me

But here you'll stay in my love and in the grave
