Dreary skies and pouring rain,
Fog rolls in an open plane.
An old worn bench sat all alone,
Next to a grave carved out from stone.
Dead flowers laid upon the ground,
The silence here is so profound.
Ivy crawls across her grave,
Name so beautifully engraved.
Despite this solemn scenery,
It just seems serene to me;
When I think of the two of us....
My hand felt the smoothest seat.
Felt like the fur of a small pup.
The spine in my back straighten itself.
Sitting comfortably in my white fluffy chair.
Breathing softly into the fresh air,
As my tense muscles relaxed into calmness.
Releasing all of the stress from before.
And therefore, I shall start all over again.
To experience, this welcoming relief....
