Her spirit wanders through the graveyard
in weeping regret
searching for the sin
that absorbed her essence.
She walks in her grief
crying tears of desolation
begging for the answers
that could make her whole.
Living within
death's dark shadows
pain mirrored on her face
for she's confined to hell.
He life littered in stone
as she stands oblivious to her crime
desperately trying to remember
a time of peace.
When darkness closes in
her quest continues
for this living death
can be borne no longer.
