Grieving

She was my lonely little ray of moonlight
It was her that made this a home
She would wake me every morning with a kiss
Until bitter wishes came along

Underneath this calm demeanor
I was such a broken wreck
(My love, please don’t cry for me.)

Sat under an umbrella at her funeral
I tried to be strong at this time
But my guts twisted and my limbs grew weak
And then I cried at her shrine

I ask myself,
“Why must God take away
A beauty so full of life?”

But of course there was no
Answer forthcoming for my grief
All I want to do is lash out
I just wish to come to face God

Would He give to me
The answer to my question?
I can hear nothing
He gives no confession

Holding her picture in my hand
Rage comes to me hastily
(My love, please do live your life like this.)

But I cannot help it
The void is filled with hate
I can try to struggle
But I know, inside, it’s too late
