Headstone Of Sorrow

Did you wear your life out;
  did you use it all up
  -what are you saving it for

We're all running headlong
  toward a hole in the ground
   -that the past and future insure

Are you stuck on tomorrow
  lost in wishes of things
  -hoping there's still more to come

Will your headstone bring sorrow
  to those mourning your loss
  -inscribing what never got done

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2018)
