Funeral

As I looked upon him lying in a coffin
There was a peace and tranquility
That you don't see that often

People gathered draped in black
Struggling to accept
Hes never coming back

Enough tears being shed to fill an ocean
As I noticed my tears
I got the notion

How selfish they are to feel this way
Its not about you
This is his big day

His final reward, a life sentence complete
For all that he's paid
Its his receipt

A fitting end to the chaos of living
To wish for him back
Caused in me a misgiving

When its my turn to go please celebrate
Throw a big fucking party
Make sure that it's great

The tears running down my face were different for me
They didn't come from sadness
They were steeped in jeaolusy
