On my last day on Earth, I rise with the dawn,

The sun breaks through clouds, like a new day reborn.

I breathe in deep, the crisp morning air,

A bittersweet blessing—a cosmic affair.

With each step, I take on this familiar ground,

I wander the paths where my laughter resounds.

I stroll through the streets where my childhood ran wild,

Every corner is a memory, each moment compiled.

The whispering leaves and the songs of the birds,

Nature’s soft symphony, without the need for words.

I stop by the river, its flow steady and true,

Reflecting the joy and the sun’s golden hue.

I visit my friends, those dear hearts and souls,

Our laughter intertwines, and each story consoles.

We share tears and smiles, a tapestry spun,

In the warmth of connection, I find I’m not done.

As the day ripens on this beautiful sphere,

I savor each moment, dismantling fear.

I sip on sweet wine, as the sky turns to flame,

And whisper my love in a soft, gentle name.

At twilight, I ponder the world and its grace,

The wonders it’s offered—each heart, every face.

I think of my journey, the lessons I’ve learned,

The bridges I've crossed, the passions I've burned.

With starlight above, I look back on it all,

Knowing life's precious, to rise and to fall.

And when darkness envelops this last day of mine,

I’ll cherish each heartbeat, each dream, every sign.

So farewell, sweet Earth, as I step into the light,

Not lost, merely changing, as day turns to night.

Through laughter and love, my spirit takes flight,

I'll carry you with me, eternal—so bright.
