By the ramp of the dearly departed
Still lay his faded fingerprints
While yet another
Was thrown in the morbid bed
Still reeking
like death

The hall deserted
His breathing slow
Hope fading
The morale low
Thoughts crept
Like death

And another after another
Was thrown into the list
Ever growing
Breaths slowing
Ever reeking
Like death

Lying in a corner
Groaning beneath the mask
A soul once alive
Moaning over the past
Waiting for a cure
Like death

And one last breath
Felt in the night
He wished to be his last
He couldn't hold on
To this madness, so
Like death

There was this glimmer
A ray of light
The suffering might end
Things could go right
Maybe slowly
Like death

The world was healing
Not all hope was dead
The once confined bodies
Will rise out of bed
Defeating tragedies
Like death

With a combined might
And hope alight
Strength in prayer
And hearts twinned
The world rose up
From death.

No one
Should leave
This house of mine
With a heavy heart
Let me
Fill your soul
With the radiant
Joy
That mine can muster
Even if it
Withers down
To its roots.

What can you do that hasn't been done before?
There are but the same words
To churn and repeat
Taking on a new form
With each different pen.

I could fit all my world 
Inside my hands
Yet have
Nothing over
My control.

There's so much I want to do, almost infinite time, the right resources and a hundred ways. 

There's so much I wished I could do, but what are wishes, without a will?

Will
you
shelter
a
b    r     o    k     e     n
heart?

Futile
Heart’s rain
Drenching revenge over
Oil fuelled fuming fire
Unquenched.
