Grief

by bertie-bug box - Cancer

At long last a moss tends to 
tarnish your grave,
and your names and your dates may
have started to fade.
Nice try, time...but this is 
a timeless pain.

Of you I weep in this cold,
heavy rain.
Those these carefree clouds wash
from me these tears,
nothing but kind earth can
bury this pain:-
that this cruel earth has taken
you from me, my dear.

Lying beside you, under this ground;
painless peace buried - my treasure found!
