at the end again
this isn't the first time
won't be the last
cemeteries feel oddly nostalgic
as if i could call one home
one among decaying bodies and pretty flowers
watered by the tears of those who have lost more that i'll ever know
there is beauty here
unity and love are soaked into the roots of the trees that blanket the tombstones with shade in the summertime
years pass by
anger still accompanies my forgiveness
no longer confused
but mad i no longer have the opportunity to be annoyed
part of me will always be missing
