The Ghost Of Winter Passed

when you wake up in the morning
and find a dead body
where your friend used to be
there is no silver lining visible
or faint light at the end of any tunnel

all that remains is cold remains
and no amount of tears or flowers
will bring back the dead
or help you forget what his father said

so you decide to strap his ghost to your back
and get to thinking that excessive drinking
will dull the din and ease the mind
but you can never leave his ghost behind
while you are judge jury and executio
