Body of mine

I walked around the building,

It smelt pungent yet clean.

I looked into the rooms and saw,

People going where they'd never been.  

Outside those rooms,

Saline rivers flowed.

While the departed souls had,

And reached the last room,

White walls, white floor, white bed,

Everything was bathed in gloom.  

A world weary soul lay there,

Sleeping sound and fine.

I looked through the window and saw,

The worn, lifeless body of mine.
