Vases

A teenage boy;
Angered;
From the stress and hatred from others;
Now asleep in the coffin;
Of which is to be buried.


The funeral;
Had the coffin there;
Surrounded by vases;
Vases of flowers;
Vases of which people give to him;
To show love for him;
But why are they giving them now;
When it's already too late.


All of those vases;
All of those flowers;
To show love;
When the love can not be recieved.

Author notes

This is just something that i always thought was something that needed to be drawn to people's attentions.

    A powerful message..... it's so easy to want to love someone after they're gone.... why can't we show them love when they are here? Brilliant piece. Thanks for the entry in my contest.

    Wow

    So much truth in that tragedy. Where were the flowers when the eyes were still open? Wonderful write and thanks for sharing it.
