Death


Death that we see,

Can often be hidden.

From which we can never flee,

It can’t be ridden.

From which it came it didn’t.

The sea of hope washes away,

As no one sees fit to play.

Everyone looks to the gray,

No color appears,

Someone will pay.

Here come the cheers,

As a new birth cries.

We feel the rise.
