Cemetery Girl
Woke up this morning with bright eyes
Staring at me
Tear stains tracked down her face
She had cried
Last night
Waiting for her savior to come
Woke up this morning with black eyes
Seeing through me
Two hearts spilling their blood on the ground
She had cried
Last night
Waiting for the pain to subside
Woke up this morning with her arms
Wrapped around me
Pulling me into her warmth
She had cried
Last night
When my heart stopped and I screamed
Woke up this morning with bright eyes
Staring at me
She said it was time for the funeral
She cried
Last night
As we buried the fallen soldier she’d found
Woke up this morning in the sea
Gentle waves
My cemetery girl was gone again
She had died
In the night
Holding on to a dream we thought we’d shared
back
