Done

Just beneath the silver sky
Shredded clouds go flitting by

The crow glides past, then the hawk
They know it’s on Death’s door you knock

You the little mouse we’re mourning
You who offered us no warning

The world cut deep, so you cut deeper
Deep enough to greet the reaper

With skin quite thin you covered well
The bone frame of your empty shell

No heart, no mind, and now no shame
Since you’ve left all of us the blame

Just where did you think that you would go
Once your blood had ceased to flow

We would not be waiting there
To hear you moan of your despair

You wrote that you could just not find
The happiness and peace of mind

That you imagined we all had
Because we did not sound as sad

But fool you were and fools we too
So the last word you wrote is our last adieu


Goodbye
