Beautiful Strife
I lament over the passing of thee
Privately, not for eyes to see
Shall I write not say a word
This world a cold cruel place.
Your path one of beautiful strife
Many unaware the glory of life
So many quotes they say absurd
This world a cold cruel place.
My face did sink in untimely passing
Shall I eat or go on fasting
How I want this feeling to purge
This world a cold cruel place.
On the brink from smelling the ash
We cannot bring back the past
Emotions hidden not let to surge
This world a cold cruel place.
