30 day Cemetery Girl - poetry challenge - day two


i touch the ground and all the memories start to creep back into me,
of the last moments i held you near,
when i could hear the crackle and gasp of your dying words,
"don't forget..."
and i stared into your always brilliant - now dimming eyes
as i saw you turn the corner from standing on this earth
to walking into the mystery...
i want to push myself into the soil, 
into the darkness,
to open my dim eyes,
to see you now, 
in the
mystery.
