Timothy Weiermann - Melancholia

Somber winds carrying the news
Of who through the night we've had to lose
Shallow graves dug in the rock laden soil

Tear soaked grounds with a wooden post
Laying to rest, the one we've loves most
And out of the sorrow, we tend to what we grow

The name of the loved one, scribed in stone
Of this melancholia, we erase what is known
