Life's Losses

Bodies,
Upon bodies,
Underground.

We lose each other more often than not,
The cause of our problems is undeniable,
Though the solution is shrouded.

Death and life unite in a place that is unlike earth,
Unlike darkness,
It’s a different view,
Fresh perspectives,
They hold on when they leave us.
