heaviness in the midst of festivities

Death
as usual you wouldn't know when it comes

i thought it would come maybe months later, maybe Easter

but just when everyone starts moving after two days' of the-more-ang-pows-you-get-the-merrier

it is the third day which one wouldn't expect
it is the third day when One Rises
and the other Follows
Only i would understand it for now

'Cause for them the grief is much too great
Their pain too much to take

Yet worry much i cannot

Call me selfish but i am tired
Tolerance to spent time with others has expired
Maybe my perception change when i hug the kids of their late mother
As my eyes meet the sorrowful eyes of their father

To you of whom you've passed
Onwards from this life to the next
Never linger on this earthly life that has past
Only unto Paradise should your aim must fix

While here we grief
We pray for you
For the day your destiny's fulfilled
To be free from the Cleansing Fires of Purgatory
And be in Heaven eternally
