In the Mourning
In the mourning is leftover moon dew
The bustle begins as noon arises
Early chill sets while the late flowers bloom
Fervently welcome a normal crisis
Dread and desire the evening both
In the mourning once and again dawn steels
Sweet sleep is loved while spinning thoughts are loathed
Façades of apathy forged sharply real
Within following days the mourning dulls
Weeks and months and years allow milestones
Failing armory shows glimpses of souls
Alone roam those you will have never known
Finding I can better see the Lord’s grace
Than your face as more than a picture framed
