A Poem From Me To You

I'm in a writing club at my school this year... with Alaina! Only the best. :D
And here's what I've been working on last week and this week.
Please enjoy. ^-^

Gatekeeper


Cold and Frostbitten,
Unfeeling at best.
The living’s deceased,
The dead fail to rest.


I’m one of the two,
Unsure of which.
My story’s nothing more than lies,
Life went off like a switch.

There’s dust in my lungs,
And a hand cold as stone,
Spindly fingers,
Skin white as bone.


With a heart that’s not beating,
And a mind full of sin,
You can hear my delirious musings
As whispers in the wind.

They say seeing is believing,
And if you look really hard:
You’ll find a decomposing body,
That’s me in the yard.

Far beneath the grass and gravel and clay,
There’s more than meets the eye.
More than just a casket,
Opening with a sigh.

It crumbles inward,
With a hand reaching out.
There’s no surprise who it is,
It’s me without a doubt.


And if you’re not careful,
Children of this age know quite well,
I’ll grasp your leg tightly
And send you straight to hell.





The ever vigilant,
Horo-chan (a kayla who wishes her name was something cooler)
