I
I saw a tombstone
The name on it read unknown
I wondered if the family knew this was their kin

II
The graveyard was dark
Nothing could be heard but a distant dog's bark
And the wind howling through the trees

III
The man stood over the grave
Silent tears falling, deep pain

IV
The coffin slowly lowered into the rectangle hole
Marking the end of this person's life with a death tole

V
Some people see death as the end
For me, it will mark the beginning of Life

I got my inspiration for this piece from my personal relationship with Christ.
