He toils all day and all year. He takes each misgiving and gives them momentary life, through one lamentable tear... Before he carries on digging. He gets his hands ***** as he digs through soil, earth and sweat. No end in sight, or he'd rather not see. No solace he'd find, no peace he'd let. He only sees this expanse of land... Of which he diligently keeps. Tales told by dishevelled sand, covering secrets which he has been burying deep. He has made this his past, present and future. He'd make sure that each would fit. Tied to this grounds, he is the worn-out keeper. He never tells but he buries hatchets.
