Who Am I?


How do you feel,

When you witness demise?

How do you deal,

Without effort to try?

How do you see,

When you're dead, so blind?

Who can I be,

So dead inside?

How can you say,

It'll be alright,

When you're not the one

Having to fight?

How do you know,

What's best for me,

When I cannot show

You my memories.

How do you feel,

Hearing of my demise?

How do you deal,

With no true insight?

How do you see,

When you're dead, so blind?

Who am I,

Without tears to cry?
