From The Grave

mommy
can I play with this doll?
shes my only friend, you see
when you close my door at night
she always talks to me
she said, some will call it madness
so I asked her why
she said, its really just my sadness
she told me
lifes no pleasure game
many worries, tears & pain
there is no colored rainbow
just sheets of solid rain
will I die young?
i wanted to know
only if youre lucky
will it be your time to go
she tells me all these stories
of her past lives & glory
at first I was afraid
now shes my only shade
she really seems to like me
even though Im lonely
no friends for me to play
no strong arms to hold me
God I hope she stays
im teaching her to pray
but I think shed rather play
it seems we sleep all day
she said she loves to dance
but laughs at true romance
guess I cant place any blame
when youre damaged
its such a shame
she said, dont fall too fast for love
it always has its price
love comes & it goes
just like a case of lice
childhood is fleeting
dying if competing
death is the only solution
when youre surrounded by pollution
she said, beautiful girl
much too good for this world
dont just wait to be rescued
they always abandon girls
and this may be your last day
no soldiers marching your way
i asked her
when He beckons me
who should I call?
who can I save?
she said, cant take many with you
its a very small Grave
but I dont understand
why is there war & death?
why do some just watch?
as you fight for your last breath?
she said, dont have many answers
but lots of painful questions
but my head some times it hurts
some things I forget to mention
i asked her to stay one more night
cause the dark it makes me afraid
she smiled the Reapers Grin
remember, she said
youre sheltered in your Grave
i asked will God be there?
will He take me by the hand?
She shook her wooden head
there is no promised land
so remember this tomorrow morning
my visit is your only warning
this IS the devils playground
but its the ONLY one that Ive found
but youre just a doll!
how do you know these things?
youre just a plastic puppet
without the dancing strings!
She said, thats just what you believe
cause if you knew who I was
youd see scars under my sleeves
there are so many sad souls
and not enough Graves to go
no one will remember you
even though you prayed
theres only dirt & maggots
waiting in your Grave
im so sorry, I told her
youve really been through HELL
i promise to think of you
when I hear the Church Bells
she said, dont waste your time
my cards have already been played
ill rest so much better
when I return to my Grave
but Ill really miss you
what will I do?
she said, youre not really alone
cadavers will be there too
the only true Salvation
written in the Revelations
is a road that is not paved
but its dark, quiet & peaceful
PLEASE RETURN ME TO MY GRAVE
