Cloudy Day Funeral

will you have my goodbye tattooed on to your palm?
and I wish I could be there forever with you

the plain, flatlined and green
I want to be buried there.

gifts are no longer being accepted
I'm sick, not getting well
keep them as colourful bills in your back pocket

crowding your wallet.

paths lead me out to nowhere
and now my hair is turning yellowish
a stained coloured grey

I used to sing to you through the walls
keep my voice bottled up
when you're feeling as if I'm too far
unseal it and let me scream out

the field, unrosed and green
I want to be buried there.

expect nothing but the truth from here on out
wish you would keep my words inked
as they delicately fall off my tongue and out my lips

they crash on a plate, not expensive but it breaks
so easily, like I did

will you be there at my cloudy day funeral?
and I wish I could be there.

I'm not sure what to say to this, other than it was absolutely heartwrenching, especially after reading your blog entry. I hope this whole thing is just a scare and noting more for you.

Just remember.....Stay strong and you can beat anything.

"the plain, flatlined and green

i really enjoyed these lines, and the whole poem, had a strong emotional charge, i'm up to my eyeballs in papers and tests, or i would write more, i hope it rains when i die

This gives me the image of a fantasy-type funeral for some reason. This painted alot in my mind, some really emotional images.

I really like this one.
