Country Digging

I read back through my writing
digging deeper with each piece,
finding emotions,
dried up tears
and words I'd forgotten...
piling dirt to the side.

The hole gets bigger,
and I find your memory 
every few feet,
in the words that I 
furiously wrote,
and dig through now
with no care.

And I've learned from a few 
country girls, who sing their 
hearts out in each song,
that instead of kicking
my feelings in the hole I've dug,
I should bury your memory
...then watch the flowers 
grow.
