Coffins

I walked up to that black coffin 
With it's open door
There lay your pale body 
Looked away for what i didn't want to fell no more

There you were so calm
No expression on your face
I just look away
Stare off  into space

Then my mind wanders no control
To happier times
Way back before
Our suicidal crimes

All of our laughter
Your voice fill my head
I expect to see you, then i remember
that your not there your dead on that silk bed.

Someone says, "There is a time to laugh
there is a time to cry
There is a time for sorrow.."
This shouldn't have been her time to die.

I walked up to that coffin
Yes I did cry 
For my greatest friend
Went home to God, goodbye.

in memory of my friend Tiffiny she died 6 years ago
