LAST DAY
BRUCE LEE
SHE OPENS THE DOOR
WITH A SMILE.
BRUCE COMES IN
LOOKING TIRED ,BUT CALM.
'DO YOU HAVE A PAIN KILLER?'
'OH BETTY, DEAR!
MY HEAD IS SPLITTING IN TWO!'
WITH CONCERN SHE HANDS HIM
SOME PILLS...'THIS WILL DO'
AND THE MEETING BEGINS.
HIS MIND WANDERS IN REALMS
HE HAVEN'T IMAGINED BEFORE,
HIS UNEASE DROWNS UNNOTICED
IN HIS EYES A GLIMPSE OF FEAR.
WHAT'S GOING ON IN HIS HEAD?
MAYBE IF HE GOES NOW TO BED?
WHEN THE MEETING IS OVER,
WITH A HUGH , BETTY IS CLOSER,
WITH A KISS SHE BEADS HIM
'TAKE CARE!'
FOR A MOMENT HE STARES
AT HER BEAUTIFUL FACE,
AND CLOSES THE DOOR WITH A SMILE.
OH ! SO TIRED HE FEELS.
TAKES SOME OTHER BLUE PILLS,
AND DECIDES TO SLEEP PAINS AWAY.
IN A MINUTE OR TWO,
HE WILL BE SOUND ASLEEP.
WITH HIS EYES CLOSED
HE BEGS FOR SOME PEACE...
AND HIS SOUL WANDERS OFF.
LOOKS AT HIM FROM ABOVE,
AND SAD KISSES IT BLOWS
FOR FAREWELL.
SHINING LIGHT ALL AROUND,
LIKE A STAR, BRIGHT HE GLOWS.
WAS A STAR IN THIS REALM...
AS A STAR TO THE UNKNOWN,
NOW HE GOES....
