Together we are Bound

by Poet Lordy

I wrote this, this morning, had to be penned or lost. A tragic, backward story, never done one before quite like it, I like it, hope you do. PL. Inspiration goes to Jane Grays Poem "Corrupted Corpse" Check it out on FictionPress. Thanks Jane.

"Together we are Bound"

Water, trickling, down the side of my grave

Movement, noises, darkness shrouding my cave

Deep cold, no light, "how did I get here"

Stillness, bad smells, could it be my fear

A picture, a scream, sadness on a face

A loved one, can't touch, a loss of their embrace

Music, singing, familiar to my ear

People, standing, crying ones so dear

A journey, so slow, what can all this be

Cold place, clinical smell, table full of me

More crying, hospital, fear on people's faces

Wires, tubes, preacher wording graces

Bustling, people, lots of panicked noise

Blue lights, sobbing, the sound of my two boys

Worried, strangers, a bark of dogs near by

Coldness, soaking, in my shirt and tie

Breaking, sheet ice, "what the hell am I doing"

Stranger, falling, not the time for swimming

Cold day, cry for help, "you two just stay here"

Walking, running, laughs so loud and clear

Arriving, journey, a day out at the park

Leaving, homestead, angels, herald, hark

Christmas, family, joyful time of year

Fulfilment, loved ones, safe from all the fear

Outside, big world, problems all around

My life, our life, together we are bound
