Poem -

wishbones

When I am dead

they will find bones
With holes in
no heart 

In the sack

Organs
That have melted
no wishbone 

In my back

A brain 
too short on electric
two eyes 

That could not see

A point
In all life's beauty
Which dies

With certainty.

When you die, I will see you 
Every moment of your kind heart.

If they’re not blind they’ll see the energy of great love
irradiating from those very bones.

A powerful, dark, well-structured write. And I hope you're around for many more years. Take care.
