how hard was your journey
I never fully knew
how your sanity suffered
you kept to yourself.
one can never
get used to dying.
ever so violent
are its blows.
one human demise
is just a start,
for sorrow lingers.
your departure
so unexpected
and for the rest of us
long time paralyzing.
your life was
full of events,
you gave care and love
in the ways only you
have mastered.
you believed your time has come.
you believed you could bear
pain in life no longer.
you may have seen your time was full
complete yet broken.
now you have entered other realm
on the new level of your journey.
as for us,
we’re left to mourn
grieving life,
understanding death
rejoicing in our woes
to cherish existence
in the sacred parlor
of death
in this world.
