Queen of The Dead

79 5 8
                                    

In a forest of graves with nothing to wear
I feel like a nudist

With only dirt and leaves to cover me up

I cover myself with them
Till I'm six feet under ground
And I place a crown of stone with my name
With my date of birth
With my date of death
right on top of my patch of dirt
Which coincidentally,
Is the same date

Trees make way
Light shines down
On my crown in this dark forest
For I have now become the queen of this graveyard
