In my own private hell...(PA).

Who will be near
when the darkness sheds a tear?
Will there be any
to swallow the memory?
When words are spoken in empathy
will there be a true epitome?
When dampness weeps into sepulcher
will any remember?
When worms devour
will the tears be sour?
When soul flies on ravens wing
will the mission bell silently ring?
When gone
will memory live on?

Definitely sad...
but well expressed.
I've wondered these same things...

Interesting read spurring one to thought.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

alibaster, I think most of us ponder these questions in one form or another -- you form and words flowed well across the blue pages.   ......jo
