SHARON'S HOPE

I always knew this time would come

I wondered how it would be

To round the corner on the road

And there the bridge would be

The bridge I have to cross

Our loved ones left behind

The one I feared most of my life

Now it is my time

Allow me not to suffer

And keep me pain free

Let me cross with my head held high

Please let my keep my dignity

With help from family and friends here on earth

My courage all intact

I'll cross the bridge with honor and grace

Never to look back
