Death (Lighter Tone On It) Poem by BlacknessRose ...

Bad news
To end the day
Holding back
My feelings at bay

Are you in
This room now?
It's all I can ask
Is why and how?

I told myself
I wouldn't cry
When you left
When you die

But having you
Ripped away
To lay in the ground
To decay

I can't hold
These tears back
Happiness
Is what I lack

I don't think
I can smile
Now you are
Just a file

I have to endure
All this pain
The tears fall
With every rain

Are you here
With me in spirit
Is death so bad
You should fear it?

I despise
This fate
As you enter
That pearly gate

I knew you could
Never stay
But did you have to
Go away?
