#melancholy

It wasnt until he bid adieu
It wasnt until pallbearers arrived
It wasnt until coffin had last nail
Those tears gave way to that wail
She had tried her best to conceal

Grief gave way to melancholy
Grief pains but goes away slowly
Melancholy darkens a lifetime
Cries of heart and face doesn't even bear a sign

Her loss was beyond words
She thought this life was now cursed
A void he had left
A void melancholy chose
She wondered, it was beginning or end of her woes
