Tl asleep? Enjoy
And so I will dig a hole in the ground, going as deep as I possibly can.
I will stand at the opening, staring into my hard work for a very long time.
When I muster the courage, I will slowly drop each memory we made into it, listening for when it hits the bottom.
I will carefully let go of each one, giving it its own time to somewhat gently float, as I shower a rain of tears after each.
I will do this with our memories, our secrets, our laughs and our tears, for each deserves it's own memorial.
When, after 3 years, I am done, I will shovel the mountain of sand behind me, back to where it came from, begging its forgiveness for having disturbed it with my heartache.
I said I wished this pain on no one and yet I was gracefully handing it over to the earth to bear.
Nevertheless, I will continue till I'm done, because I know our story is better off encapsulated and kept safe by mother earth herself.
I will pat the top of our grave, making sure it's as neat as it was before, I wouldn't want to inconvenience her anymore.
I will do my best to clean up thereafter, wearing my best clothes and I'll even apply the perfume you liked.
I will visit our grave, giving due respects to the world we built for ourselves.
And when I'm finally ready, after 3 years and some, thereupon I will build a new world.
A world filled with happiness.
I will be careful in making sure the foundation in flawless, using only the purest of materials.
From there, I will build up.
The pillars will have the strength of my heart and the rooms will be filled with the light of my smile.
Many will try to stop me and a project that big is guaranteed to have its challenges, but I will persevere.
I will build my new happy world over the death that is us.
And I will sing about the days I spent tending to our grave, always praying for what lies within, for, without it, my new happy world would not exist.
