Poems
Nov 8
I’ve been dead only an hour
I’ve been dead only an hour
And yet my body feels so cold
My soul has left this world so sour
With no one’s hand for me to hold
I’ve been dead for just one day,
Yesterday my world fell flat.
Honestly, I died a year beforehand,
But now you’ll never know that.
I think I died the day you left
And in the time that followed so
Back in March, the month of luck
I think I died a year ago
And here I stay, resting at last
Finally, I’m free to roam
My heart is stone, my eyes are glass
Truly now just skin and bone
The prompt for this poem was to "write a poem starting with the words 'I’ve been dead only an hour.'”
