Sweet Death
November 19, 2011
You stand below me six feet under
Storms form with clouds of thunder
Maggots crawl from your sunken eyes
I see the cold truth past your eyes
Your insides deteriorate
Your body dis-integrates
Rigid bones fill the casket
The terrible fate your life met
Rotting smell of flesh hangs in the air
Death is always meant to be unfair
Tears fall from my face
As I put the roses back in place
Buried underneath me so deep
I wish you a good night sleep
Sing you a sweet lullaby
And bid you my last goodbye

I love how you seperated the word dis then integrates with a - rather than all together. Great piece!
