poem about heavy bones #poetrytime Guilt bears down on my bones Frozen in a way I can’t be left alone Swallowing hard does nothing to remove the sick Left over saliva from a monsters long lick Lingering and festering and poisoning my home My body, clawing and reaching for a tombstone Bury me under the earth Let the worms and bugs eat away my worth Let the weight of the living push me so far down Till I’m no longer haunted by the footsteps of creatures above the ground Tear down or break, just please remove the carved stone So all that is left is my guilt rotted bones
