Self-Burial

By Legions Slave

A body is being buried
The body being buried
Is the same person who is burying it
A person that was once weak and vulnerable
Did not stand up for themselves
Cared what other people thought
Is being buried by a person who is strong
Stands up for themselves
Doesn't care what people think
Who is burying who they once were
Never to be the person being buried again

If only it was that easy, good luck - but plan on an occasional relapse too, cheers!
