Frail

humanity, stripped to the bone

Frail emaciated body

 

Skeleton of flesh

 

With a gentle hand on your back

 

Guiding you on your Bataan death march

 

Down the path of life

 

To the very end

 

I will ease your pain

 

Comfort you best I can

 

As you slip into

 

Finality

"I will ease your pain
Comfort you best I can
As you slip into
Finality"
