Dec 2015
Your casket was open
And you were inside
I stood in disbelief
Had you really died?
Everyone around me
Overflowing with grief
And yet I stood shaking
Trembling in disbelief
I knew I looked foolish
Yet I couldn't stop
Flowers adorned your grand casket
A cross on top
Everywhere around me
Time seemed to stop
I couldn't believe
It was you in that box
A pearly white rosary
Clutched mockingly in your hand
According to the Priest
This was all God's plan
And as we lay you down
Amidst the dead man's land
Rain fell softly
I felt my heart expand
And painfully squeeze
Inside my chest
I stood in disbelief
And tried my best
To remain composed
Among the rest
Of abandoned souls
You'd finally left
Nevermind
