That's not Melly's grave, it's too big, she's so tiny, her bones no bigger than a bird'sNo! She can't be dead, she can't be Scarlett's head jerked to one side, denying the open grave, the plain pine box being lowered into itThere were small half circle sunk into the soft wood, marks of the hammers that had driven the nails to close the lid above Melanie's gentle, loving, heart-shape faceNo! You can't, you mustn't do this, it's raining, you can't put her there where the rain will fall on herShe feels the cold so, she mustn't be left in the cold rainI can't watch, I can't bear it, I won't believe she's goneShe loves me, she is my friend, my only true friend Melly loves me, she wouldn't leave me now just when I need her most Scarlett looked at the people surrounding the grave, and anger surged through herNone of them care as much as I do, nor of them have lost as much as I haveNo one knows how much I love herMelly knows, though, doesn't she? |
