The grave
this part of me that won't die
that is stain
a resonance
a rocket
two shadows now.
one split.
i can bury it 

it claws up through the earth
and back into my body
through tiny feet
that are running as quickly as they can
towards anything
any man
any song
any dance
any drug

this part of me that doesn't die.
a zombie heart
feeling without beating
loving with nothing to love
embracing an empty space
a grave look on it's face
i can bury it.
