Family

Once a woman had a daughter 

That begrudgingly befriended a epileptic 

Whose father adopted as son

Maine reason the father agreed 

Was to ensure the name wouldn't cease upon the land 

Sharing many seasons 

Unpredictable as raging storms

Misaligned agitation 

Destroyed the remains of a lost foundation 

Beneath the soil

Many of the beloved eternal resting

Annoyed by the conflict 

Unsettled at the primary residence 

Silence seals unspoken madness 

Until dark horsemen devours life

Forcing anger to intertwine 

A befitting conclusion 

For an optical illusion masquerading as sorrow 

To harbor a bitterness towards an enigma 

That lays mortified in a hollowed cavity
