Funeral
My mind drowns in the sound of rain
Trying to focus, clouded with pain.
One step at a time, I follow the procession
Despite what's to come I've a sad expression
Because it's a funeral of the very "I"
A ceremony to finally say goodbye
It's a chance to recall my past
And let go of what has passed.
I'm alone, except the crows
That seemingly in movement froze
And calmly watched my death's parade
As the trees around us swayed.
Now I truly feel forsaken
Even demons sleep, unshaken
Not one angel plays their horn
Now an outcast, I'm reborn.
All ambitions left behind
With just one dream in my mind
To finally leave my lonely shroud
And be, until my last breath, proud.
Sun shines through the clouds at last
As the rain eventually passed
Now my mind rests, all pain gone
While I gaze at new day's dawn.
