worshipped from a further void,

pre-loved without remorse,

haggard eyes sewn shut,

words spoken a moment late,

languished in the ever lost,

persistent against a time that is long gone,

wisdom given,

puzzles solved,

a futile argument won by the losing side,

a wisp of smoke,

forgiveness forgotten,

a hate seeded softly,

growth,

departure,

rudimentary procedures,

September mourning,

granite fixtures,

my name carved in the stone,

but my date not given..

This was written using Sammi Cox’s weekend writing prompt, the word this week was PRE-LOVED.
