Haven of Bones
By Beata Huntington
Bury me in the forest where the greenery grows thick
Water my bones
and sow them with moss,
shrooms, and lilies
Mark my grave with faery rings
and make it into something tranquil and sweet
May it be a haven for goblins, gremlins, witches, woodland creatures
and the likes man has never seen
Water my bones with your tears
and sow them with your sorrows,
pain, and hurt
Bury your broken soul deep in the dark earth
May it be overgrown with moss,
may your veins be filled with rainwater,
and your lungs swell with the sweet wisps of gentle wind
May you grow, and heal, and learn that you are loved
And may you find your love for life here in the quiet depths of forest and moss
