Death cripples
lurking inside the shadowed corners
death shows itself
as a wondering spirit
to those who find themselves
in death's grip
to those looking in
its watching heavy showers
drowned down against
unprotected bystanders
falling raindrops slide against the window panes
of an empty mansion
dark and dreary
in times of the shadows
darkness clods
fallen tears
as most are to drowned
the white covered walls
surround the coffin
pain stricken faces engulf the room
