"Just bury me in the memories" -Modern day escape


Stopped by your grave today
thought id come by and say hey
brought some wild flowers your favorite:

Thought they might help you forget
and myself forgive
we need a talk
I have so much to say:

Sitting down I sweep
away all the leaves
I talk to you
as you finally listen:

My love for you
is shown with the tears
that fill my
gleaming eyes:

Come back
I tell you all the time
because for some reason
I cannot say goodbye-

The author's comments:
I had quite a few deaths in my life--but my papa passed away when I was four he was my best friend--and 12 years later i still cannot say goodbye
