"Married and Buried in Blues"
by pogbaitpoetry
Dreamt my whole life of being married in blues. To find a burning love that engulfs me. To be joined in holy matrimony in the cloth I so proudly earned. Read my vows for all to hear with the chevrons on my shoulder securing my importance. I was only 21 years old when I discovered my dream would never come true. I was only 21 when I was buried in my blues.
