I placed a pebble upon your grave
A small unblemished stone
And stayed a while, my day to waive
So you were not alone
The yawning sun stretched heavenward
Blinking a weary eye
And rolling under a blanket cloud
That cloaked our world in a silver shroud
It crossed a mourning sky
And kneeling at your earth-made bed
White marble pillow for your head
I talked a while of that and this
And all things in-between,
To ease my burdened heart, remiss
For days you've never seen
In angst and anger at your loss
Oh how I'd gladly gladly toss
Your villain in a stream
And watch them flail and watch them choke
And take a stick and **** and poke
To hear that villain scream --
But only in a dream
Too young to fade, too late to save
Too small your marble stone
I placed a pebble upon your grave
And walked away, alone
