In Retrospect

Rise from the grave with brighter beleifs
For time won't heal all these memory wounds
Lodged inside the past lies fear underneath
Distant stains of joy and bitter defeat
Covering these walls with a hindering releif
As salvation hangs in reach without a sound

The dead live on with a beat in their chests
A reminder that denial is holding them back
Tightly gripping in a constraint of loss
Failing to find strength and a bridge to cross
Bring forth the end or wait to see the rest
A true sense of belonging is what we all lack

If there is a purpose it would just be this
If there is an answer it would have been solved
If there is worth in someone it wouldn't be us
If this is a notion that makes you feel nervous
Take a long look back at everything you miss
and be grateful that one day it will be resolved
