Eulogy

Now in these fateful hours A weakened stalk supports a weightless flower A ghost roaming to this day To wish for death Irony unjust in the end A wicked joke at expense of the dead For reasons far beyond my knowledge You wished for a home Though the feelings that shook your bones Were just a failsafe so you weren't alone I fell into a darkness That plagued both of our minds As the gardens wilt and decay I wish once more to change that night I cant forgot those years Exempted as a comfort Your voice a distant thought Exactly what I needed most I'd try to treasure all life The sense of dread it hangs high like the scythe Lying there on that square Gasping for air I heard it every night How could I know? How could I care? That my sudden lapse of judgement Had dealt this hand And now the seeds were sewn I stood beside you once Empty of all comfort Except now to say that your love Is smashed and gashes at your veins I felt your pain & in those throbbing nights I see Those broken edges in my Sunken, hallowed, doubtful dreams The lone wolf who cried wolf Never to grow were these orchards A vein collapsed In front of my eyes A death of mottled colour Yellowed, purple in demise Reminisce & relinquish all thought and just let it go And cut away the guilt They say the blood of the covenant is thicker Than the water of the womb I'd sit & count the days Kept composed as i held my poise I forgot the sound of your voice And the dulcet sound of your music choice I fell into a darkness That plagued both of our minds As our gardens wilt and decay I wish once more to change If I could say good bye Just one last time I'd make you take back Each time you wished to die This pain resides If only you knew you Were loved so dearly from start I fell into a darkness That plagued both of our minds As the gardens wilt and decay I wish once more to change Though you're no longer with us Just please know that we'll meet again someday
