Jan 2015
The soft crumbs of bread
Sway with the wind
Onto her grave
Where thousands of birds
Swoop down
like a tsunami wave
I kneel down on the dirt
The closest I'll ever be
To her sublime soul
Never met a woman
More giving than her before
Now she's just a casket
Buried six feet deep
And I am nothing but a man
Who's only function is to weep
What is a world without you my dear?
What will become of me?
I am lost in fear
They say my condition won't bring you back
They say you'll never reappear
No matter how many times I cry
No matter how much I shed tears
They say my status is serious
They say its real severe
But I shall lay on this earth
Beside you
Until the world disappears
Feels like you left me just yesterday
Has it really been ten years...
Sometimes the pain becomes too much to bear and we lose ourselves in all of it.
