Buried

Calm and sweet is my sleep

My body starts to decay

Earth covers my mortal remains

Darkness –

No matter if it's night or day

Insidious the death sneaks in

I can hardly breath

Maggots try my skeleton

Oblivion -

No matter what you believe

Sweet, calm and sweet is my sleep

And it feels like buried alive

A weeping willow adorns my nature grave

Its roots twine around my bones

And sway my body gently

The sun shines

What a day!

I lived my dreams, I was never part of this world

Its beauty is not yet known to me

Life is passing me by

The sun shines

I need a rest, I better lay down my rotten limbs on my cosy, mossy pillow

Under the willow...

Oh, what a day!
