I Digress
To and fro her feelings go
Leading mine astray
Imagine her surprise when I
Should have something to say!
Love is patient, love is kind
It seems that I might burst
Biting through my tongue, I
Swallow blood to quench my thirst
Restraint my swiftly dying friend
Held dearest in my heart
Your wisdom never lacking
Motivation on your part
As far as dying wishes go
I’ll honor your request
And bury you between the
Bone and sinew in my chest
