Closing Chapter

Vacuum of thoughts Pain that defines its origin Invisible block on throat Tasteless air through the nostrills A body weak to the skeleton How does a house stand without it's central pillar? How does one look at their face without a mirror ? How does one exist outside of existence? Unpalatable questions yearning answers A broken soul longing wholeness A shattered heart begging comfort A mind out of sync with reality Birds compose a final sombre anthem as winds whisper the silent voices of those laying under Fountain of tears make way down the pale cheeks Here cometh the hour Dust to dust The choir master carries with, confidence of angelic voices the choir ministered Undertaker's gathers tools in fulfillment of task completed The Levi hopes the missionary message preached cuts deep The multitude takes comfort in knowing their presence was made known I carry with, a sore and heavy heart of a future without you.
