Death Came Easy
Death came so easy
So easy to watch them smile
while watching them growing up
Discovering life,
making their way
Becoming what they will be
Making us laugh glee and joy
treasures they gathered just so
memories days they smiled
meanings lost behind unspoken words
Seemed normal like any other day
A pat on the head
A kiss on the cheek
who remembers words we said
parting and living our lives
busyness of business fill the hours
Just humming along passing so fast
While they hiding and cowering
in clenches of fear pure terror
Death came visiting
the halls and danced
amid pleas for mercy and forgiveness
but death knows nothing
But the harvest.
walking with purpose,
he chooses his prize
nothing can be done
but to mourn and cry
remember smiles the good times
living with regret and sorrow,
embracing pain
counting the tears that never stop falling
