My death lily

I saw the death lily they placed upon my casket,
at once I knew I had to pick up where I left off.
My scars I have seen, carved by an unknown hand
And now I know the pain I endured from my mistakes.
It’s my fault, said to be faultless flaws, but I very much doubt.
My angel so naïve, and so trusting I wish to see another one.
Angels are scarce in my part of the world, their grants aren’t of worth.
So who is hurting now? Knowledge, or a lack of, I do not know.
And what I saw, as they laid me in my final place-
Wilting gardens, my darlings with tears trickling down their faces
I refuse to see their pain; I refuse to see their domain turn to dark.
I know they won’t survive; thus my death lily can wilt by its self.

| Your poem dealt with a very interesting and difficult concept. I thought it was well written and touched on the dark side of mankind's psyche. |
