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.
