\nThis too shall pass.<\/span>
\nTemporary,<\/span>
\nFlicker of a burning candle<\/span>
\nMelting wax<\/span>
\nPooling under your warm embrace.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nThis is a ceremony.<\/span>
\nGrim jubilance,<\/span>
\nFairy lights along the walls<\/span>
\nDim colors<\/span>
\nLighting up your dim world.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nThis is a funeral.<\/span>
\nDead memories,<\/span>
\nThe Hurt in your poetry<\/span>
\nMourning metaphors<\/span>
\nCascading down your face.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nIt has all passed.<\/span>
\nA new day,<\/span>
\nLove in the morning breeze<\/span>
\nA warrior<\/span>
\nReturning from the battlefield.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
