Graveyard

 

City of the dead,

The ancestral legacy will someday ensue, 

The Promised land will soon beckon me to its gates

 

Befallen

With such a blackened vision,

I let go of one very meaning sigh

For there’s no telling when,

For there’s no saying how,

For there ‘s no knowing why

 

Never have I felt this down to earth

The grass I ‘m stepping on will turn the tables one day

As the tombstones are stuck on the ground ,so will I

 

Crestfallen,

I settle into submission

And let out a breath of acceptances

So be it ‘ I say

One last good look before I head away

Emotions gone as grey as the light of day

 

Death whispers its parting words,

We shall meet again but next time it will take forever

I smile ,only to say ‘I’m glad I still have you them
