You lay in your casket of glass,
The sun plays on your deep set eyes,
A knowing glow, shines through your embalmed skin,
Before embarking on your eternal voyage,
The one into the unknown,
You lay there silent,
Motionless expression free,
Not a soul can hear you moan.
You poor cold soul,
Tucked up in eternal sleep,
Beside the funeral mall.
All who knew them love and miss them!
(C) Livvi
This was inspired by a documentary about death, presented by Billy Conolly, it was fascinating, but rather profound.
