  "PEOPLE OF THIS EARTH, PLEASE GIVE MY MOTHER THE SALUTE SHE DESERVE!" I shouted with my kuya aaron beside me now and then i heard the song my mother used to sing to us..

Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of Vodka's still lodged in my head
And some blonde gave me nightmares
Think that she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They won't make of me when I'm dead
With an ironclad fist
I wake up and french kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps its own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love, the truth, what you mean to me
And the truth is
Baby you're all that I need

I saluted first and i saw the others followed as the coffin is slowly going down, it started to rain, it's like the sky is also mourning just like we do.

I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
Oh I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses
Well I'm so far away
Each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes, I'd give each night
To see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper
"Baby, blind love is true"

I put down the salute when the coffin completely reached the bottom and the people also followed, i slowly walked closer to the pit and felt my hands shaking as i slowly throw the white rose with my brother beside me..

I then see the amount of white roses being thrown too.

I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
Oh I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses
Well this hotel bar's hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
Well I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died
Ooh yeah
Now as you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again

Mas napaiyak pa ako ng makita kong nagsimula nang mag pala ng lupa ang dalawang funeral staff.

The vision of my mommy's smile flashed in my mind as i felt the cold wind hugged my body and i know kuya also felt it as i heard him cried harder.

It's done mom.

The pain is done.

Be with father now.

The hope you missed a lot.

I felt kuya's arm wrapped around me, comforting me. He's broken too but he never once forgot to take care of me.

My brother, the best brother for me and my mother for he is the strength of my mother when she's carrying me.

Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
On a bed of roses

The song ended when the coffin is complete covered.

'Mommy..Daddy..

The sky is already letting you cross your paths again.

My mother, BEHATI AZALEA MONZANTO-ARMSTRONG.

THE SURVIVOR OF ALL THE TRAGEDY A PERSON CAN EVER BE IN.

SHE IS THE SURVIVOR OF EARTHQUAKE, FLOOD, TSUNAMI, VOLCANIC ERUPTION, ASTEROID EXPLOSION AND NOW, UNLIKE DECADES AGO. A SURVIVOR OF LOVE'.
