Burying YouA Poem by Angela Hunter
A jolt speeds my heart at the sound of my phone
But I know it’s not you that causes the tone My spirit falls and I wonder where we’d be If you hadn’t found heaven; if you’d stayed here, with me My future looks empty without promise of you My hope of a life together, never to come true I pray you’re better off, up there on a cloud But I’m shattered, though I dare not say it aloud I push to move on, but every piece of my life Reminds me of you; I could’ve been your wife No being on Earth could even compare To my best friend; my confidant; my realistic pair I look on your face but you cannot see mine It’s an angel you look on; a being divine As I dig you a grave, you look on with uncertainty But it’s not you that I bury, it’s just your memory © 2014 Angela Hunter |
