(THESE TEARS)
We wondering what it's like, when they pull that sheet across a silent body.
Energy disapating into the ionosphere, becoming part of the all.
Family surrounding a lost one, salty tears pon glistening cheeks.
Falling so tenderly, heart wrenching sobs and sad solloquis.
Enough of that sadness, where you are there is no pain.
Life on this plane continues unabated, so many left saddened by your passing through.
A piece of you dwelling in these minds, in memories where you are still here.
That briefest moment in time, you and I inhabiting this planet that we dwell upon.
The good times and the bad, the happy and the sad.
Devastating truth as we pass by you, one day that will be me.
I to shall pass this way, such a savage truth as you are laid to rest.
