Alone, anchored in the ground

From what void did you come to create such a powerful tremor in my universe? From what emptiness were you born to invade my world like this? From what tragedy did you emerge to trap me with you in your outlet? What monstrosity will we be co-authors of to get out of this deadlock? What bond must we mourn and accept to exist together? What fate must we rid ourselves of to purify what remains to be saved? What exit were you diverted from to come and force me to deal with your presence today? My mourning will have no end, in fact, it will not happen, and besides, it makes no sense; I have barely begun the wake, I have barely set foot in the open grave, with so little respite to seal it; I still have to go fetch them, at most, shed tears.
