A Dreary day
Clouds fill the sky
Absent birds
Ominous Quiet

Air filled
with the slat water
of the gray sea
Fog rolling in.

Passing a Grand Church
The Old Doors slightly parted
A faint stench of Death
lingering within

Pushing the doors open,
hearing the echoing squeaking
A casket surrounded
by Black roses at the front

The Vast church,
almost Empty. Only
a handful of people
sitting in the front pew

Curious, more Drawn
to the Casket. Walking
up the isle, hearing nothing
from the mourners

Closer it is to me
The smell from the Black roses
overwhelming.  I peak
inside the Dark flourished Casket

ABHORRED!!
All color leaves my face
Ice gripping my Soul
can’t breathe

The Body, Cold
and Dead is ME
How can this be?
The mourners, turning to them

My family;only.
Uncontrollable tears
They Vanish, no one
in the church with me

Is this my Fate?
Alone for eternity
Collapsed on the floor
Yelling out into the
impending void...

great work!!!
i love the style...
what would it be...sorry i am unaware if it falls under any category...but it's was so well written...
sad...but i loved it


 If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves
from which evolves the light...

My friend Dhuron, I tell people that I walk down to the local post office,
just to get my mail, but I really walk down to see if my name it on the inside corner
where they post recent deaths.
They see me looking up at the corner, and I say it’s a good day.
And no you will not be on a floor yelling, there is more than that.
Joel.
