Someone has passed away

I watched the casket

Being lower

In the soil mixture

of mud and Clay

I’m afraid to say

What I need to say

Now is it okay to cry?

I’m being left alone

In the cold dark streets

The sighing winds

Has numbed my feet

My thoughts of life

Was nothing but a blur

Now is it okay to cry?

Death, sorrow

Pain like there’s no tomorrow

We lie

We can’t cry

Why?

Because of pride…
