    For F

    deep in death she lies within so cold
    with the flesh I’ve so much raved about;
    where time and all its majesties old
    she lies, with beauty there and life without.

    and i, in solemn silence, grieve
    while thoughts meander in waves of sighs;
    remembering, yet refusing to believe
    that life has left once-luminous eyes.

    ah, deep in slumber she reposes and rests,
    free from fetters of fickle fate;
    and the form that once felt warm caress,
    have naught but only worms to sate.

    hello there, crush! if you are a fan of edgar allan poe, you'll probably apprecaite the link between death and worms. In fact, he wrote "The Conqueror Worm" and that is as much final as death is.

    Sorry for the late reply, Leny. Thanks for the comment. Y'know, it's difficult to imagine the depths of sadness one can plumb until one experiences genuine grief. Thanks for taking the time to read and God bless!
