I grieve for the Lost and the Broken

and for dreams that they never fulfilled

I grieve for the Loved ones I’ve lost

and for Ray and Kaylene my two friends that got killed

One I lost to suicide the other to a heartless killer

Her killer sits in a texas Jail, but nonetheless I miss her.

Every New Years Eve

I cannot help but remember

a life so full of promise in an instant turned to embers

 And then when they told me Ray had died a few years back

I couldn’t believe that

I am the mourning poet

I will be till I draw my final mortal breath

I will shed this mortal coil,and then by and by

Though this flesh shall die

I will join the Lord, my friends, and the angels

Up on Heaven’s highest Hill

We will be together yes we will

I will shed this life of troubles,griefs, and sin

 then Never will this poet mourn again
