Ignited deceit

Broadening the scope and mindset of the dead.
Their intuition concerning their loved ones.
Lots of them that feign love when greeted with the tragedy of the demise of a loved one.
Looking from the other side, fogs are lifted and one could see clearly.
Looking down seeing jubilation at every corners.
Comments on how great it was to be known and will always be remembered.
Anger won't help the deception planted in the minds of those present.
Everything a sham, cover-up scheme.
If they actually did show a little concern
Might have turned out differently.
A little love can make a difference.
Throwing deceptions around for all to catch.
Cos no voice can speak again.
Sharing the details.
The past is disregarded and the present is acknowledged.
Pretense is worn expensively on that day.
And pride the master of ceremony.
If all the riches were given when the heart was still beating.
All these won't be wrong.
Displaying your full potentials at the latter end not when needed.
Just for applause and praises from those who doesn't matter.
But who mattered is laid to rest due to abandonment.
*     *          *          *
Displays of wealth during a burial means nothing to me.
If the deceased was never paid any attention or care.
Partying endlessly for days won't rid you of any guilt that's if you've any.
Singing praises won't change the memories printed in your heart.

Lamentations of the decedent wasn't heard.
Giving excuses when needed.
Rushing without pause after it happened.
Due to carelessness.
•    •         •         •         •
These are just food for thoughts.
Did they get all they wanted in life?
Were they perfectly cared for?
Let your mind travel far and the truth exposed in your eyes.
