Two for Tragedy
Sleep Eden sleepMy fallen sonSlumber in peace
Cease the painLife’s just in vainFor us to gainNothing but all the same
No healing handFor your diseaseDrinking scorn like waterCascading with my tears
Beneath the candle bedTwo saddened angels, in heaven, in death
Now let us lieSad we lived sad we dieEven in your prideI never blamed you
A mother’s loveIs a sacrificeTogether sleepingKeeping it all
No sympathyNo eternityOne light for each undeserved tear
Beneath the candle bedTwo souls with everything yet to be said
