#15 - Alone and 13 Feet Underground

-

 

I’m stuck in a tight hole

in a boundless valley.

Thirteen feet underground,

I am alone.

Through layers of dirt,

I see the moonlight

telling me the day is over.

Wooden ladders are brought down,

yet I am unable to climb them.

As the sun rises,

and the dirt starts to

fall in,

I bury my head in my arms

and wait for the new day

to rescue me.

I hear the voices of my future, whispering through the mist.

Tonight the clock ticks for another hour before it’s death, and crumbles to specks of dust drawn into the sky ending Time himself, who vanishes off to a parallel universe.

The silent woods are watching us. Across the forest, I call to you. But you have already drifted  far away from me.
