a part of you

into your soul it burrows deep into your mind when you're asleep into your thoughts for you to keep it will become a part of you and when the evening settles still and Time is but a whippoorwill then suddenly you'll feel the chill it will become a part of you try, you may, to end your plight to swallow it with just one bite it gurgles in your stomach tight it will become a part of you though you've prayed the fervent prayer to juggle Life into the air leaving no one, not one in despair it will become a part of you in youth, we can not see The End in middle age, we will pretend and, at the closing, we will defend that Death, became a part of you C2023 Thomas Lee Rhymes - January 12, 2023
