Grievances to the Mourning
Chiseled stone set up in rows upon chilled floors
Designed and intricate patterns blur under water
Droplets wobble and topple down rosy cheeks
Words pursue lips as forgotten prayers
Murmured once with a upward smiles
Darkness takes form onto sitting bodies
Life’s sweet perfume fades out like fading waves
Hand holding staples people back to earth
Letting loved ones ascend to the beyond
Never to be held like they once were
They mourn what has been lost
Happy memories morph into limited mementos
Slipping through minds back into dust
The last of those who knew sit together
Brought together by the word of death
