Buried Alive

by John Bowlby   Mar 5, 2007


Fall into a coma,
Then later awake,
To a strange aroma.

The smell of dirt,
Trapped in a box,
Lungs start to hurt.

Gasp for air,
Hard to breathe,
No one to care.

Begin to panic,
Yell for help,
Scream and kick.

No one around,
No one to hear,
Buried, in the ground.

Scratch and claw,
To no avail,
Fingers turn raw.

Last breath of air,
Pray to God,
I've paid my fair.

Fall asleep,
One last time,
Fall asleep... Fall asleep.
