Fading Embers

Title: Fading Embers

In shadows cast by twilight’s ascent,
A towering figure with unwavering intent,
Sven-Goran Eriksson, the football legend,
Now battles a foe that cannot be reckoned.

His spirit, once ignited, burned so bright,
Guiding warriors on fields of green and white.
But now, a cruel twist of fate has come,
As time unravels what he has become.

Within his heart, a fire still burns,
Though weakened by an illness that returns.
With grace and dignity, he faces the night,
Braving the storm, ready to take flight.

Memories flood, like a cascading stream,
Vignettes of glory, a living dream.
As whispers fade into the quiet hum,
His legacy remains, forever overcome.

Life’s fragility, a poignant reminder,
Each sunset arrives a little kinder.
Sven, the warrior, his spirit shall survive,
A beacon of strength, as long as we strive.
