I Mourn With You Professor

I MOURN WITH YOU PROFESSOR Shadow and mirage are thesame; The former is never a substance And the latter never an oasis. But the death of a child is both: Hope is dashed and respite betrayed Leaving only behind the pain of rising utility That often comes from the nostalgia of reality... I mourn with you Professor.
