WHY DO WE LIVE ON?

Life is too heavy a burden

to carry on days like these -

but death is nothing. In

the void that is death

the memories which torment us

would die with the consciousness

- and with the memories

those whose loss is the pain

which carves our mind apart

would die a second death.

We live to remember them

whose going to the emptiness

made life this unbearable grief.

In our sorrow part of them

still lingers, in our suffering.
