Seven

You were seven years 
to late 
when you came to me 
and told me 
you wanted to 
remember him...

Seven years to late
to rally me around 
a sunken grave
and a bug eaten spirit
and your moment of thinking 
of our dead friend

Hoping to sway me
with his name
A lazy eyed golem
I ignored you and 
went back
to seven years of missing him
And wondered what
power you 
thought
you could muster
using his name
so late in the game
