No more cries of the heart
Death cloud
linger above
her eyes are fixed
to see his present
she walks the path
toward the light
daylight dimmer
along the way
her passion for life
roll away
she hears a call
to take that rest
her defilement stand out
along the path she walks alone
into the sunset of her home
a blink a way
her ending is clear
past endeavors
were in vain
lost of words
empathy failed
kindness lost
eclipse by shame
she bears in her bosom
lessons learn
burning hot coals
to warm her cool heart
nil to do
ideas left behind
her finale is but
a blink away
