I
Thought
I Might Die
That Day As I Watched
Your Lifeless Body Being Lifted
By Angels, and yet, lowered into the ground.
Six feet deep, I refused to
Throw dirt on you because
I felt as though it would tar
nish Your perfect complexi
on The beautiful hand I wa
nted to hold in mine Was n
ow wrinkled and withered
I sank with you My blood s
ank into my veins My heart
sank into my chest My eyes
sank into my head But I wa
s not dead yet. You taught
me to live So I could not fal
l apart I bit my lips until th
ey bled Clenched my fists u
ntil they went white Fightin
g to hold on. I could not cru
mble But as the coroner low
ered you down I realized th
at I had no place to go but up
