African American Poetry: A Digital Anthology

Waring Cuney, "Grave" (1926)

When I am in my grrave
And none are there
Save those who like myself
Must sleep,
I shall wake at times
To weep.

I shall wake at times
To weep,
For I need have no fears
There
That someone see
My tears.

I need have no fears.
