Covered in plain white
Moments before you were breathing right
The smile you carried, shiny bright
How will I cope with you, out of sight?
.
The blooming plants await you to feed them
Stray dogs seek love as you walk with the men
I’m impatient to see you giggling with friends
Why don’t you wake up and say – it’s still not the end!
.
Covered in plain white
Even when you loved blue and the night
Why are they taking you away, in afternoon light?
Somehow, this doesn’t feel right!
.
But I am unable to do anything about it
For you were theirs, and I still an unknown bit
Before we could say out our love and grit
You went to another home – probably more radiantly-lit!
