Every bitter feeling that has ever existed, rising to the surface and bubbling over in your mind until you are eaten away with pure remorse

What she would have wanted.

If we closed our eyes and held hands tight we could imagine that instead of the sterile room with hard backed chairs, instead of the bad makeup and frumpy dress, instead of the generic brown casket and slide show we were all sitting on the shore, the long boat drifting away, the fire catching, the Viking drums beating like the heartbeat of the world.

Headstones & Coffins

A somber place,

Where headstones stand,

And where coffins lay,

Buried beneath the surface of the green grass.

- Michael Hall

(Not quite what was asked for but it's what came to mind)

Funerals

You stare at the cold lifeless body,

The vivid lost memories replay in your mind over and over like a broken stereo,

The discomforting silence in the room reminds you everybody is going thew it, the endless cycle of grief and recovery.
