That which was there...


That which was there.

Did you know what it was?

A possession.

A feeling.

A moment.

A life.

Did you know it's worth?

The stars which we look towards, or the ash we tread upon?

Did you have the right to give it?

Did you have a right to take it? 

That which was there?
