Land of the Dead

I'm missing someone who died at the world's hands.

There was a man hanging from the rafters, and I

thought how wonderful of him.

The people all screamed sin,

like they refused to let him live.

And in a way, they did ,

since he was dead because of them.

But how wonderful of him,

to look at death as a friend,

welcoming in the end,

as he took its hand to freedom.

People too afraid to leave this land

could never understand

why he took his chance at leaving.

But how wonderful of him

to float away from life and leave it.
