Moonlight on a Tombstone

Moonlight on a tombstone, illuminating a name
Shining down from the heavens onto a hallowed grave

This sanctuary of eternal sleep

Moonlight on a tombstone, illuminating a date
A fateful day when a body and soul would separate

This cemetery of everlasting dream

I walk through the veil of night to find answers in moonlight
I sit before the tombstone, reminiscing silently, but then I ask the question ‘Why were you taken from me?’
‘Why were you taken?’
‘Why were you taken from me?’
‘Why?’
