words…

Like crumpled balls of paper

Torn apart and tossed aside.

I lost the keys to the kingdom, so they will never see inside.

I will take this crate of treasures unseen - with me, to the grave

And hope six feet is deep enough to muffle the sounds

Of the last breaths I will breathe

Which will scream

All

I’ll

Never

Say
