Death

by Emily (capricorn) - Not entered

I saw you on you're death bed,
You face so waxy and scared,
You offer me a cookie,
And I left,
I heard her talking to unseen people,
Ones who had been dead for years,
My heart couldn't stand that pain,
I never saw you again,
I went to you're funeral,
And I sat alone in a pew,
And I saw you in a casket,
You looked content,
It made me wonder,
Is there a heaven?
I promised myself I wouldn't cry,
I didn't know I was until Mom wiped away a tear,
I now I find myself rejoicing in my sadness,
That I remember you're laugh.
