Her last words

NDOU ROLIVHUWA


Notice of absence from NDOU ROLIVHUWA
Hello, I'm currently residing in a rural area with limited internet access. I rely on my prepaid data plan to stay connected, and I'm running low on data. As a result, I'll be temporarily unavailable until I can replenish my data or access a stable WiFi connection. Thank you for your understanding!

 

"I'm tired of sitting, just lay me down"

She whispered soft, with a gentle crown

Her eyes closed slow, like a fading light

As she surrendered to the endless night

 

With weary breath, she let go the pain

And embraced the peace that came like rain

Her heart, a vessel, worn and true

Finally at rest, with nothing to pursue

 

In those final words, a story's told

Of a life lived full, with moments to hold

A legacy left, in love and in grace

A memory to cherish, a peaceful place

 

May her last words be our guiding light

To face our own end, with courage in sight

And when our time comes, may we too find peace

In the stillness, where love and

memories release.
