Sunlit

I stared into those glassy eyes
and I cried cried cried
my tears dripping right inside
wishing to make them alive

even for a single second
I craved to fill the emptiness
to find the missing bond
feel less of the mess

then I closed them lids
as if sleeping they would say
but they felt heavy amidst
this forsaken sunlit day

I heard chatter from afar
gibberish and some laughter
I could not make sense at all
of this forever after

they lowered the coffin
deep into the ground
the thuds filled it to the brim
a soul never to be found

yet I still see them glassy eyes
and I cried cried cried
dried up tears and sweet lies
as on that sunlit day I too died
