Graveyards


A shadow falls across the gravyard of the mind
And snaky thoughts burrow deep
among corpses long interred.
Why did my heart scream?
What ugly spectre did it find?

I wake into the night , I lie
my heart feels pale, my mouth feels dry
Where are the oceans that I crave?
I want to sink into the waves.

Who can give me that love's deluge
in whose sea I seek refuge.
Who will drown with such a surge,
the deafening wail of a dead love's dirge?
