Gravestone

Gravestone I never believed in gravestones A stone left to show your passing Just a name and some dates Left standing alone for all time A place for people to come and cry They tell you how much they miss you But that fades and you are left all alone Yet, a gravestone does not tell who you were How you lived or who you loved It merely says that you were there
