THE FUNERAL
by Timothy J. Muise
*******
I cried today,
at the death of my friend.
She was brilliant,
my only chance at survival.
All is lost,
as she leaves this cruel world.
Her smile gone,
and I cannot breathe.
How she glowed,
everything was possible.
No more light,
true darkness now closes in.
Her name Hope,
the prisoners only salvation.
Wearing a badge,
they have laid her to rest.
The coffin closed,
the death so ugly.
Dismembered and raped,
I no longer know her.
Her blood red,
staining every city.
Her void deep,
destroying our future.
Let her rest,
missed from my core.
May she rise,
like a Phoenix supreme.
I love Hope,
though I miss her each day.
She still lives,
in all that we do.
I smiled today,
I knew it was my Hope,
She came back,
and we can now break free.
