Skeleton Friend

Old shy friend, I have seen you before;

A lonely sad skeleton,

Down in the mouth and spirit.

Let me lend you some, with a

Shoulder or two- let my sandpaper

Words dry you.

You're long gone, a long time alone,

With ghosts and shadows as your friendly dolls.

Let me mend your open wounds;

With needle dull and sting crude,

And lengthy string of acceptance and hope.

Let me heal you sour and scorch the lies.

Let me heal you soft and caress the scars.

Old shy friend, just open the door;

Sooner I'll mirror your bitter bones.
