Six Feet Under
April 17, 2010
The marigolds, your favorite flower,
Sleep peacefully on your wooden box
That will be your bed from now on.
Inside lies you,
Your body motionless
Like a burnt out candle.
When they lower you
Into your new home,
I'll remember the days when
We never had to worry about tomorrow.
So I'll say a few words now,
Try to hold back my sea of tears.
I'll say my last good-bye
As you begin your life six feet under.
