lying in the coffin peacefully
I saw myself, my eyes closed
there were people around my body
sobbing, teary eyes
few of them I knew
they were silent, crying in their hearts
many others, I didn’t know them at all
I wondered, why were they even there
they never were there when I was alive
they never were there when I were in need
they never were there when i was dying, calling them
what brought them here today when I am dead
I am no more there to talk to them
I am no more there to share a smile
I am no more there to be held
seeing their fake tears on my funeral
I knew they just pretended to be sad
I now realize why they came today
they never wanted to be accused of their heartlessness
they never were happy to see me alive
today,for them was a day to celebrate
so they came to see me dead
