Casket

You’re carved out of sorrow
Inside you hold’s death
Terror is soaked in your timber
You’re filled with memories
But I don’t want to remember you
Your hinges screech
But inside you lays is silent
Your body acts like a curtain
Blocking out all the light in my life
Your imprisonment is inevitable
Your pain is inevitable
Your loss is inevitable
But so is your acceptance
You have taken something from me
Something I loved
Something important
Something treasured
Please look after them
Please help me forget
Oh casket, why do you fill me with sorrow
Oh casket, why did you take them away
Oh casket, stop following me
