Unveiling the past
Is like digging up a grave
Deeper, farther.
Solid facts like dampened Earth
To the final truth
The corpse within
I cannot cry, I mustn't cry
I shall shed no tear
Yet tears fell from these opaque eyes
Anger, remorse
Fill the contents of this room
Like wine at the altar
Memories echo
Like unfocused insanity
Saddness shall never faulter
-
Wake, funeral, flowers and caskets
Why did this happen?
Where is formaility?
Cowardice, malice, unfathomless thoughts
Tearstains, family to her side
-
Things will be alright momma
Please do not cry..
Baby brother,
Our angel in the sky
Our heart of all
