Alone

Alone

I feel so alone
now that you are gone
gone from the world
though life goes on
wars are of occurrence
blood and bronze
dirt and mud
and they do not stop
I sit on the bench
and stare at your casket
hoping
wishing
that it is not true
that what I see is a lie
though deep inside
I know the truth
even years later
I'll sit next to your grave
and pray
pray that where you are
Its a better place
though I feel so alone
