feet in the earth

digging into mud

i need to learn

is this your love

clawing at dirt

down to six feet

heart stings to hurt

a hurt too deep

to see you again

a marvelous thing

this cannot end

this sweet yearning

nails bitten down

my fingers be empty

in this ghost town

clung to my body

a phantom misplaced

a haunting beauty

let me have a taste

i adore you truly

i will join you in paradise

we can linger together

trapped in a warm vice

your possession cannot weather

at your side i’ll burn

still in heaven i’ll be

they’ll bury my urn

desecrate beside me
