Momento Mori

My mind is a dense and over-stuffed place

Around me are the skeletal remnants of grace

Killed by time's unrelenting pace

Entire worlds drowned in time

Indistinct echoes with which we rhyme

Towering giants on which we unknowingly climb

Slivers of awareness in our cosmic dance

Too much power over too much chance

Open to the weight of crushing choice

Pain to which I can give no voice

Acrostic

Writing has been a hobby of mine for years, so I'm just thrilled to be here! As for me, I love writing, dogs, and travel (only 1 continent left! Australia-.-)

I hope you enjoy my madness
