Cemetary Sentinels

by sibyllene   Sep 14, 2006


Ashen soldiers stand watch
ranks and rows spiral past the living
weathered by time, unmoved by tears
stoic testaments to broken lives

ranks and rows spiral past the living
a still procession, untouched by woe
stoic testaments to broken lives
a parade of the dead

a still procession, untouched by woe
weathered by time, unmoved by tears
a parade of the dead
ashen soldiers stand watch
