Gravedigger

Today is a day about loss:
The persistent dull ache of a wound
That had healed, but that never will.

My past is an unmarked grave;
Some things are meant to be left
Untouched and dead,

Lest it be an ocean of unsettled sand,
The release of rune-locked shadows,
A girl, remembering repressed memories.
