Caverns

The drop of water Natures only noise Curiosity caught her Had no other choice Hands, trembling Flashing eyes Integrity disassembling Cave, stone skies Man made, cracking pillars Holds up uneven rock The innocent are killers Ringing sound, a mocking jay mock Deeper she wades Heart pounding harder Light she evades Evil’s own martyr Led to die Born to float Dead she lie Maggot’s boat Her last day, Far from joyful Panicked disarray Remain ever loyal She won’t be missed Though remembered A death not wished But terribly rendered Frozen by winter Stone can’t catch fire Burned to a cinder Flames flicker higher
