Haunting Display

The mourning heart lives Nestled within life’s decay Perpetual memories Stream loops on replay Symbolic references Gathering dust on display While casketed treasures When viewed bring dismay Another season spent With happiness in slumber Stagnated remembrances Of a past life encumber Copy write @ Debra Squyres 10/02/2012

And so the process goes on. And with tomorrow comes another dawn. A memory will always fade, it's just the way that we are made. Until the day we cross on over. To where our loved ones lye in clover.
