Do the dead ever get lonely?
I wonder if they cry.
A terrible thought-
to be alone when you die.
I go to the cemetery
late at night
and silently sit
among lonely gravesites.
Do the dead ever speak?
Do they ever scream
about all the things
that they’ve heard or seen?
I talk to the dead
and picture their faces
as I listen
at their final resting places.
Do the dead ever get tired?
I wonder if they sleep,
or ever get restless
in their graves so deep.
Almost as if
in sorrow bound,
I lie above them
on their hallowed ground.
Do the dead ever cry?
I wonder if they weep
for all the loved ones and memories
that they couldn’t keep.
Sometimes I cry with them
and I share their pain.
Although they’re not living,
surely, the pain is the same.
Do the dead care
about our mortal debts?
If you wrong the dead,
Do they ever forget?
here is the last one for a while soo enjoy and comment!!!!
