how many ways must i give you up? grief is just a sport for lucid and the lame. how many boughs till i break this falling- to the mossy hill below? where grief is just a shallow pool with reflections of me beautifully crying We ugly mourners live to talk. selfish shallow pool of grief- my yellow rainboots fall madly upon my mirrored head. i am just a puddle and i wear it like a man because sometimes... grief is just a tailored suit all dressed up in pawpaws best neatly pressed. the seams of your life sewn in a straight line. it's easy to compartmentalize the times you weren't your greatest you. in death you leave the lovely behind and take away the rest. in life you leave the death behind and take away the lovely such a wasted irony. grief is valentine. wont you be mine pinks and whites? sugared promises of time. grief is a lovers candy heart. sentiments on marble etch the total of our time. grief of mine, such weather beaten blanket. when did she become my lover? cast aside your sadness. grief is a friend of mine, grief is a friend of mine.
