Found alone, unappreciated. Each finger trailing my bones, gazing intensely at me. These judgemental stares surpass those glares encountered in life. Found buries beside an untrimmed hedge, a locked door. Never welcome, never cared for. The foreign feel of these gloved hands. This alien touch ********** me from all that I had left. Nothing is left inmy possession. Just looked at, not understood. Each lain brick accounted for, not a thing out of place. All these indentations eft by footprints mark what should have been my final resting place.

Skeleton on display
Found alone, unappreciated. Each finger trailing my bones, gazing intensely at me. These judgemental stares surpass those glares encountered in life. Found buries beside an untrimmed hedge, a locked door. Never welcome, never cared for. The foreign feel of these gloved hands. This alien touch ********** me from all that I had left. Nothing is left inmy possession. Just looked at, not understood. Each lain brick accounted for, not a thing out of place. All these indentations eft by footprints mark what should have been my final resting place.
