You are gone.
But I do not wail in a river of tears.
My face is dry.
I try to cry,
But the tears do not flow,
They do not come.
My face is dry.
I laugh and smile,
But do not cry.
I defy you,
I deny you,
I hate you,
I heart-grippingly love you.
But I do not cry.
I see your body,
You thin, sickly, skeleton body.
Your mouth half open,
Your eyes glazed.
My nose, my eyes run as I stare at you.
You who were strong,
You who were brave,
You who were alive.
I cry.
My face is wet,
And you are dead.
But I do not wail in a river of tears.
My face is dry.
I try to cry,
But the tears do not flow,
They do not come.
My face is dry.
I laugh and smile,
But do not cry.
I defy you,
I deny you,
I hate you,
I heart-grippingly love you.
But I do not cry.
I see your body,
You thin, sickly, skeleton body.
Your mouth half open,
Your eyes glazed.
My nose, my eyes run as I stare at you.
You who were strong,
You who were brave,
You who were alive.
I cry.
My face is wet,
And you are dead.
