The wheel of destiny
Moved forward today
Leaving you behind
Slowly you passed away
In the comfort of modern medicine
If I can say
You manage to escape
And now you are free again
Of the oxygen tank to help you breathe
The morphine injections to dull the pain
The catheter
And the intravenous to feed and keep you hydrated
You lived simply
Having the name of a king
You fought for Liberty
You did your duty by your country
Reading poetry was your hobby
We had that in common
Suffering has ceased
You can now rest in peace René.
