Unrevealed, Unravelled, Unclaimed

To Death

I stare downward
At this open grave
Cold and empty
The tombstone bares my name
Til death do us part
That was my pledge my vow
I never really understood then
But I have no choice now
I pull myself down
And stare at my grave
It is so final
Can I be so brave
I kneel in the dirt
Running it through my hands
Soft and  damp
My thoughts disband
I fall to the earth
Chilled and crying low
Please just cover me
Say goodbye and go
