Remnants

Embedded in fertile plain

Snared in pulp and stone

Confounded being emerges

Surrounded yet alone

Surging growth in vigour

Morbidity at bay

Hale deceives the advent

Of cycles in decay

Winter's first marrow cracks

Mother bides the spring

Ne'er evade the hand of death

And coursing pain it brings

Matter broken, times expire

Eternity's division

Peer across the fatal pass

Terminus inition

Ills that never truly mend

Breath which seldom draws in ease

Pulses often miss their step

Somatic ever in disease

Embedded in fallow plain

Consumed by pulp and stone

Confounded being expires

Abandoned and alone
