There's this cemetery inside.

Ask not for names

Nor details of burials.


I plant flowers

Hedges appear

And fade away

In an eerie silence 

Punctuated by breath.


The cemetery grows. Unguarded.

A handful of soil 

To each living soul.


Hear those footsteps? 

They come and go oft

Like dried leaves. Countless.
