Graveyard

Hans Holbein

Graveyard

You put me in the graveyard

Now I'm choking on the dirt.

You put me in your graveyard

So you cannot feel my hurt.

I'm dying slowly, lungs are filling up

with mud and worms and slime.

This heartbreaks lonely, nothing here

to hold me, just the passing time.

And if I lie awake here,

will I see your face before I die?

I know I won't. You said goodbye,

I just feed my soul with pretty lies.

You put me in the graveyard.

Will you watch as I decay?

Because now I'm in your graveyard,

and that's the only way you'll stay.
-Jesaka Leigh
