a deaths demise

Contributed by mehuel on Monday, 16th August 2010 @ 12:21:44 PM in AEST
Topic: abstract

i cannot say a prayer,
its not cos i didnt know the deceased
twenty four hours have elapsed
and it only now i got to know his name
but i ask myself,
a prayer to what, a prayer to whom
what god have i seen to believe if he does exist
what god have i witnessed to say the prayer to

what god would come to rescue the mother of the deceased
who is there to hear the words of her tears
what words could surmise what prayers could placate
who is there to listen to her unspoken grief

but so has gone the departed, not to any other world
so has he transcended from life to her thoughts occult
yes, a son has perished, a friend, a brother too
indeed to live long in fer memories where death isnt true
and for long he shall be missed
never would any joy fill the sorrow of his abyss

but i ask myself again
a prayer for what a prayer to whom
as following these words i tread into an unknow gloom

This has a certain sadness about it but you handle and expose this sadness in a very sensitive way. Your words are lovely, I enjoyed reading this very much.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
