Friendships questionned, loved ones tested.
Seeking truths and never
rested.
Old wounds healed while others festered,
Some are lost and never
quested.
Eyes that watch, that judge too soon,
Quivering lips recite a
tune,
Body's shaking much too soon,
Dancing dances, before noon.
Soul survives, the limits drawn,
Finding faith to right the wrong.
Each
new day that presses on,
Silently waits and then is gone.
Veil that drops and never rises,
Life so seldom brings surprises.
Peace
that quietly surmises,
Sleep - the final answer rises.
Loved ones feelings are still fresh,
Suffering ended, gone the
flesh
Time replaces, left to mesh
The empty void that's always left.
