This is what goes on in my mind when I attend a funeral.
Fear.

The Fear of death.

Rain falls on bare skin,

A rush of sadness drowning the soul

As though it were you in the coffin


Crying.

That one familiar person,

Known throughout mankind now gone.

Taste the death: bitter and nothing.

Fear.

It’s the fear of death.
