Epitaph



Epitaph

On a dead end street in the middle of the city,
we meet. We like all the same things, you know
the story. We're kept apart by the predictable
haunts -- old love, everything to lose. I once
said a place was heaven and a child told me that
it was heaven because it had a lot of cemeteries.
I feel certain we are buried together there.

It is always the past carried forward that prevents the present from having a better future.

That is a great piece of short writing...poetic, actually. Nice pic,too. :)

Have a great weekend!
