why would the universe
let a symbol come full circle
touching so many lives,
making each of us whole
Bringing with it confusion
that touches our existence
making us question
the depths of our soul
wanting to know
the answer to the question
asking the hardest one
breaks up the pain
gladly giving
the token to its deserving
hoping her love for it
will cover its shame
taking from us
the burden it carries
wanting to end
the effects of the past
never feeling closer
to the depths of its healing
only hoping
the sadness wont last
only for a moment
I held my family
closer to each member,
the covenant of one
what was broken for a lifetime
was brought much closer
A new beginning
and an ending has come
