Eternal Sleep

Around her neck, the noose grows tight,
Tighter and tighter, as she fades with the night,
As her last few seconds pass,
Thousands of thoughts,
Race through her head,
Any moment,
And she'll be dead,
The noose grows tighter,
She's done now,
She was lost,
She was lonesome,
Finally now, she is at rest,
Her casket, not silver nor gold,
But wood and vine, into the ground she goes,
She's buried deep,
Finally happy, in eternal sleep.
