It’s just a cold stone
set on the ground
I trace my fingers over the clipper ship
carved into the light red
marble
I lay on the ground
where the grass pokes
me from its barren
grave
curling up for comfort
I pray
to my daddy
The man who
died before my
birth
He died
before he
could hold me
and tell me it would be alright
