Bountiful harvest
but the sickness doesn't care.
You were taken too soon;
The only two that mattered.
The gravest injustice in loss
is health.
Scaffold finds new heights
and I paint the sky to
feel closer to my sorrow.
Below, the ground laughs in knowing;
Another meal consumed.
So I take a leap from grace
in attempt to see your face
only to meet the flagstone under
which you're concealed.
Again, I am not this dark nor in a bad place. I love Halloween and I feel like writing a bit darker than usual. I am currently reading a book called, Shadow of Night, in which one of the characters, before being turned into a vampire, loses his wife and son and tries to end his life by jumping from some scaffolding.
So no need to worry about me...I'm good. Happy Halloween :)

Damn. I watch this extremely awesome girl on DA, and she started watching you, so I figured I'd check you out. I was not disappointed. Your writing is great!
