Corpses

You've always loved digging up old corpses.
It's just a shame you could never seem to figure out
what you wanted to do with them.

Leaving me close to alive, but barely breathing-
Suffocating in the dirt of our past, waiting
to be uncovered once again.

But when you do, it's merely to check
and make sure that there was no life left inside of me.
Your vile words a cure for my consciousness.
