Epitaph Here lies one that no soul will mourn, No eye will shed a single tear; No heart will wring with emotions torn No one will lend a listening ear. To a desperate soul in captivity Lonely and forgotten throughout eternity. Here lies one who will know no friend Of kith and kin all but bereft; Not a single hand will succor lend To one who has but nothing left. For a lonely soul in captivity Seeking for love throughout eternity Here lies one who will never know The joy of life with each breath; The light of day will never glow Upon a life dimmed by death; On a desolate soul in captivity Craving for freedom through eternity.

"Not a single hand will succor lend" I would love any poem that used the word succor properly , but this was a really good write. Well done. |
