He Who Has Passed

by shannon-lund

I wasn’t being rude to you but to him; He who thought he could scale mountains and climb trees And jump off all without actually having to fall I wasn’t being cruel to those who mourn, But that with which caused the sorrow, as tomorrow He’ll be not but a fading memory that can’t stick What’s his face? You’ll cling so desperately to pain It will be sickening to watch and even worse to try to bear Until the faint of heart stop beating themselves Into shuddering piles of agony We must all prepare for our own destruction We must make the beds that we will lay in forever
