Mahogany

by Amanda   Dec 2, 2005


I heard about your news, today.
I thought it was a lie.

I had to find a chair, to sit.
How could they let her die?

"Don't worry, she felt no pain," they said.
But how could they possibly know?

"She's in a better place," you say,
"Where forever sweet breeze shall blow."

Tell me how can she feel, the breeze,
When she is six feet down?

Give it a while, she'll decay;
Her eyes no longer Brown.

    Very, very, touching ...I can really relate to this . I have heard that saying a thousand times . ( He's gone to a better place, or she's gone to a better place ) I feel like you how do they know ? they don't . They just say anything to pacifie you . Keep writting . I love you're work ....luv Letty...xoxo
