Give Back One Day
972 wordsClad in a black velvet suit, I came out of the house, my eyes red and swollen and my heart in pain. I carried with me my father's portrait. The embalmer upon seeing me told me to place the picture in the car's front window pane. I did what he ordered me and proceeded to join the funeral march. The solemn music of "Amazing Grace" filled the air and the emptiness of my heart. I would have cried the instant that song played but I couldn't... I would not dare to believe...
