Bury me in twilight
Louis Barber Wahl
On the day of summer’s death
I went to the river that winds out of town
Where we said we were brothers
Where i’d tell you my fears
And we’d walk until our feet bled
And our stomachs were sore from laughing
I sit where we watched the sunset
I told you this would be a good place to be buried
Tomorrow I’ll go back to the halls I dread
And I’ll look back on this moment and think about how good I had it
But right now I’m here
And the black birds sing
And the river winds on
And I wait for the sky to turn black.
