Death Bed Confessions


 Death bed confessions


Upon the death beds

Heard confessing

You were the one

Never in my possession

Though I carried you

All these years

Locked up deep inside

Where we'd abide

In your fine longhand cursive 

Writing down the poetry

For only our eyes inside

Our confines

In my final dying

Take the words so secret

And scatter them liberally

About the wondering ones 

Don't fear our uncovering

The words rhyme in a 

Dialect foreign.
