A Mourners Mirage

Let me add a new definition to Bing's Web Dictionary today

let me start it off this way....

Because I saw it all in their faces and I saw it on her burial day.

1. I can feel it coming and many have no clue but by the end of the day

there will be many breaths taken and many minds forever will be blown away.

They all will come to learn the truth in the end, and after your funeral procession.

The private family members only get one chance to make it a lasting impression

scripted actions, looks, and a heavy carrying ****** expression.

This needed to be done no matter how strong there loving depression.

Everyone's jaws dropped to the floor when they saw the truth,

it was a sold out show and there was no ticket you could buy because there is no ticket booth.

Out the chapel, across the street and into the Catholic Church

upon the trucks they placed your casket as if it were on a perch.

Your Mass now comes to an end, I saw it all and now I see a painting right before my eyes

Because if you could see all their eyes as I opened her casket and took out the urn

you would see that, they were all stuck as I carried her through the family crowd

and carried her in my possession,

all you readers should let me rank number one and give me my turn ;)
