Tired
By DavidVale
Put me in a body bag
Carry me away
To a place where I’m allowed
to
Silently decay
Throw away the broken pieces
Of
a life behind
Joyful photographs that by now are
Forever blind
Visit once a year the place where
Purple teardrops grow
Where there once was joy and laughter
Many years ago
