Graves of the Forgotten ©

I had to make this poem based off of a photograph for English. It's not my favorite but I don't know.

The boy stands among the monuments
Of the forgotten.
The unkempt graves
Of broken stone,
With sorrowful brush
As their only gates.
He hears the secret
Told by grief,
This will be his,
A monument
Of the forgotten.
