Joseph Bright, Sr.

When I come to the end of the road

And the sun has set for me

I want no rites in a gloom-filled room.

Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little–but not too long

And not with your head bowed low.

Remember the love that we once shared

Miss me–but let me go.

For this is a journey that we all must take

And each must go alone.
