May Moss Grow on Their Bones
Location
Someone died here
Maybe moss grows on their bones
They are forgotten
Blood spilled into the soil
Echoes the only thing that remains
They are long dead
Maybe moss grows on their bones
All that they knew is lost
Their bed is covered in vines
The classroom is dust
The school is no more
And the hallways echo emptily
When this person died
Maybe moss grows on their bones
It was spoken of in hushed voices
Whispered of at hall corners
Passed from person to person
And not believed
Few knew them or cared
If it was told where they died
Maybe moss grows on their bones
It would mean nothing
It was long ago
The message would not be passed far
Disbelief would fallow
But it would be forgotten
Then someone was dead
May moss grow on their bones
And it was not me
