Take this to your Grave

Take this to your Grave

A Poem by Kaelani

 

Bury me
Six feet deep
to ease the ache
please let me sleep
I feel life
slowly drain
away I am
but in no pain
Shadows dancing
a darkness painting
Can you see,
what I see
across my eyes
Shovel dirt
over death
and heed their lies
Ragged breathing
growing cold
Won't live much longer
or so I'm told
Can you feel,
what I feel
running through my veins
streaming from
black skies
Blood rains
dripping down
where I won't be found
Just draw the line
Stop wasting time
Take this to your grave
because I've taken it to mine

A wonderful depiction of darkness and pain leading to the inevitable conclusion to life... and yet, there almost seems reference to premature burial too... Love the short sharp pointy lines stabbing into my senses... very well written...
