| The Burial |
|
You asked me once again To drop the life I had embraced, And then to bury it, Not leaving here the slightest trace; Reluctantly I did, While tears of sadness filled my eyes. While laying down my dreams My heart was whispering goodbye- I watched the grave for weeks, Accepted pain with grim despair- I died, was buried deep, And God seemed not to even care! But then, one day, with joy I saw the growth of something green, And knew that from my death Sprang life beyond my greatest dreams. |
