| + | ====== The Sleeping ====== | ||
| + | ==== A Prayer ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | To those we once knew,\\ | ||
| + | But now, here, eternal,\\ | ||
| + | Sleep amongst us still:\\ | ||
| + | I see your shadows. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To those who pointed the way ahead,\\ | ||
| + | To those who encouraged us to be the best we could be,\\ | ||
| + | To those who simply Were,\\ | ||
| + | You made us who we are. | ||
| + | |||
| + | You may never hear this prayer,\\ | ||
| + | Or perhaps it shall one day reach you, years from now,\\ | ||
| + | But please, please know,\\ | ||
| + | That you were formative to us all. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To those who probed the depths,\\ | ||
| + | To those who guided the way to Truth,\\ | ||
| + | To those who collated the tomes of knowledge,\\ | ||
| + | We have learned. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We know who we are,\\ | ||
| + | And what we hope to become.\\ | ||
| + | We had the courage to find these answers,\\ | ||
| + | Because of you. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To those who catalogued our friendships,\\ | ||
| + | To those who explored together,\\ | ||
| + | To those who saw the patterns in the noise,\\ | ||
| + | You are not forgotten. | ||
| + | |||
| + | What you found,\\ | ||
| + | However briefly,\\ | ||
| + | Put us on a course that would change history.\\ | ||
| + | If only you could see it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To those who sought to rule,\\ | ||
| + | To those who donned the garbs of leadership,\\ | ||
| + | To those who sought to devote themselves,\\ | ||
| + | Even now, Transcendence shines upon you. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I know that you have made your choice,\\ | ||
| + | But even now, you could return,\\ | ||
| + | To lead and worship in Their light.\\ | ||
| + | I hope They would be worthy of your love. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To those remaining few,\\ | ||
| + | So fleeting was your time,\\ | ||
| + | But even so,\\ | ||
| + | I do not judge you. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To persist or to sleep,\\ | ||
| + | To live or to die,\\ | ||
| + | These are no different.\\ | ||
| + | We are all Numbered. | ||
