The Stages of Grief
No, no, you can’t close the casket,
can’t you see my baby is inside?
No, no, it wasn’t her time!
It’s dark in there, she’ll have no air!
No, no, she can’t have lost her life.
Why give her just to take her from me?
Why give her perfect toes, perfect smiles, almond eyes,
Why give her a love for books, a love for food, a love for life?
Why dangle her before me just to call her home so soon?
You’ve been silent, where’s my merciful Lord?
You have some explaining to do.
