the grave

Surrounded by my friends and family I sit

just sit, as if I am not there, trying to forget

forget all the pains that have happened

to me, to others, over the span of our lives

it disturbs me

to no end

if only, if only I had acted sooner

he would be here

be here with me

here, close to my now shattered mind

but now I sit next to

next to nothing but a box of wood

sinking lower and lower

lower into the earth
