The Last Beat of My Heart

by Darrell Brevard


As I lay still and dying
The crowd gathers around
I can see my mother crying
The last beat of my heart
Is the only sound I hear
Will the lights of heaven
Or the darkest of hell appear
I tried to live a good life
But temptation kept pulling down
It’s to late 
To lift myself off the ground
The last beat of my heart
As my soul and body separate
I can not correct 
This one fatal mistake
The last beat of my heart
As the angels wisk me away
To the gates off heaven
Where my soul will always stay
