grief

what is it that can pierce
through a veil of sorrow
to look upon a bygone face
of beauty and grace
and feel no regret, only a deep
utter, almost-breaking
love for the person you were
who reflects us all

that is why we so mourn, so grieve
you like a dear friend, far or near
because we see ourselves in you
