the burial
for when the heart
became a place confined
for the weights
of the waits
the emotions
came out
as words
clad
in deep red
too heavy
to carry
even on paper
he chose to bury them
call it cliche
he chose the location
deep
in the woods
afraid
of their exposure
and the consequences
of it
now safe
in the knowledge
no one will venture
that deep
he came home
to a new reality
the void
in his chest
for the words
clung to his heart
took it with them

The poet, extraordinaire of thought and pen,
giving gifts of insight and truth.
The time spent above and here could not have been put to better use.

Wow this is so great in metaphor and so cohesive as to content. There is play in words fabulously done too. ESP admire how u say 'void in chest and link it to the burial underground. Kudos, I'm awed.
