A Grave Loss

The sins that summon the grave beneath
A sorrow that stares right at the wreath
Blossoming hope within our heart
To one day find a whole new start
The sky so blue yet full of you
The words once spoken also so true
A stirring boil down to loss
The price we pay is what we cost

Penny for your thoughts is what they cry
The response that all of us will one day die
With tears that drown the grave beneath
The understanding that we bequeath
