Yours To Keep

I woke up to see
The light of day
Then I found myself
Floating away
Into the sky
Through days gone by
When I was free
And in control.
That was me
Buried in that hole
Six feet of dirt
But still it hurts.
Not a single grain
Of this sand
Will stop the pain
Of a dying man.
I closed my eyes
And fell asleep
The blood I shed
Is yours to keep.

This is a very deep poem. I loved it all the way through.

The pain and realization of a chapter lost is very vividly conveyed. The anguish is felt throughout the entire poem. Great job!

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
