Gaining recollection

Of lost artifacts

That could leave a trace

Remembrance of affections

A hollow phase

Another step back

Toward the stairs

Onward to grace

Painting the perception

Unaware

Of aging unopen case

With a grave dissatisfaction

In and out of place

Another step back

Toward the stairs

Onward to grace

An unfinished epitaph

Which could carve itself

It's something we've never had

Just lingering hurt instead

It's something we've never had
