Grieving

Cut me alive
You may as well
Bathe in my blood
I’m already in hell

Point your finger
Pluck my eyes
Pick me apart
Please hurry your cries

Open my skin
Look deep inside
Scavenge around
No need to be kind

Nothing is left
A hole you will find
Keep shoveling the dirt
Leave nothing behind

When you reach the bottom
Don’t look so forlorn
Give up now, be gone
This body has worn

Look Upon the clouds
See light in their shapes
Be safe in the knowledge
I must pull this loose cape

Many years I have spent 
On this Earth down below
But above is what calls me
And I must say hello

Point your finger
Pluck my eyes
Pick me apart
But Please…

Say Goodbye.
