NAMES CARVED ON A STONE

We live in the moment, and

not a moment more,

our past,  simply

a closed door.

Some believe grave stones

preserves your coming and going,  

but a name carved on a stone

is simply a name 

without any story.

Row on row

stones with names

a cemetary 

solace for family and friends,

but with their names 

added to stones

 your story ends,

becomes yet another name

carved on a  stone.
