The rain poured hard
Hard as rock
I looked at the ground
I was still in shock
I opened my hand
The shovel fell out
She never struggled
Not even a shout
You did the right thing
She deserved what she got
Just the once she said
…. I think not
She fell so quietly
Quiet as a mouse
I had to get her out
Away from the house.
I drove and drove
To where we used to lie round
I would never have thought
She’d lay underground
I dragged her to the hole
Her lips.. so soft
I kissed them once more
Then backed away and coughed
I sobbed and cried
As I patted the last spot of dirt
This serves you right
You cheating flirt
powerful piece for sure. I don't know if it was written with this imagery to vent hurt and anger or just what to really think. It's a hard call..Explain this one to me when you have a chance..
I like this poem too.. Good Work!
wow nice poem... i like the verse where you kiss her
however, hopefully this is a metaphorical murder...
I like poetry that tells a story. This was really good!
