I got this idea for one singular Over The Garden Wall Poem but if I have more ideas for Over The Garden Wall poems I'll post them here.

I hope you guys enjoy this one, and if you're thirsting for some Over The Garden Wall content I've read one of the graphic novels and it's pretty good.

I lived in a house by a cemetery

Where a lot of kids were buried

At least I thought they were buried

Before I knew the truth

There was a wall on the edge

Keeping the restless spirits in

At least I thought it kept us in

Before I knew the truth

Over the wall, I went

Because giving up was safe

At least I thought I could be safe

Before I knew the truth

Far away from the cemetery

I learned what wasn't buried

Far away from the garden wall

I learned the truth

Far away from my fears

I found a fear much darker

Far away from the garden wall

Giving up became my truth

Far away from the cemetery

I saw children become trees

Far away from the garden wall

I learned what we keep out

I lived in a house by the cemetery

And one day I ran away

Over the garden wall

I thought I would be safe

Safe is imaginary

Buried like empty coffins

Deep in the cemetery

I saw the woods come to life

Souls forming trees

I learned that night of fear

And finally, I understood

When your spirit breaks

Your heart hardens to wood

I walk by the wall in the cemetery

On the side where I'm not buried

I call to the restless spirits

I am what they keep out
