Tombstone

Folder: 
Society

A memory forever
etched in stone;
two numbers with
a lifetime between them.

 

An epitaph,
a concise statement
to describe
a human being.

 

How can we limit
one's character,
one's accomplishments,
one's very soul
to a few words?

 

How can we begin
to explain love
and loss in
a single sentence?
