Charon


Charon
by Lord R.e. Taylor

When I close my eyes 
I can feel my heartbeat
It feels so very strange
Most everything is gone
But Charon I can see you
How long have you been watching me
Just waiting for my last second
I would love to travel with you
Cross the River Styx beside you
If that is to be my fate
I will board the ferry with a smile
If my fate is to not stand with you
Then please wait for me
I promise I will return to you
Carrying two silver coins
My fare for Hades’s Ferryman
