Old Graves

Submitted by C. Cooper on Wed, 2022-01-26 10:10

It's hard to see everyone else moving on
Singing songs about healing old wounds and covering old scars long forgotten
When you're still left at the bottom of the grave you dug
So many years ago
I'll walk with you into that 'better place'
Just remember I have to say goodbye at the door
Because I haven't crawled out from this pit just yet.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

Hiya, Coop.

Dig upward mate.

I've a feeling that you're going to relieve your bladder and piss off after this poem,
