Scent of death

Who are you?
what am I?
this is life--
we're passers by.

radiance falls
& fragrance lingers
this subtle numbness
tingles through the tip of my fingers

could love fill the empty room?

this desolate space,
it consumes
the human race,
like a black hole
a vacuum to the light in your soul..

hazy eyes
gloomy skies
sunshine cries--
the funeral's today..

the windows shine
stained glass
colored in disarray

I prayed to God, may you stay..
