Read This

It cawed at me as I got closer, urging me to take a look at the tombstone.

Maybe this was the answer to all of my problems.

But I couldn’t even make out any words, everything just garbled in my mind.

Names. Phrases. Dates. It was all there, yet I just couldn’t read a thing.

Did I even want to read it?

Its caws grew louder with each moment I stood there.

What was even here for me? It’s nothing. There’s nothing. Nothing. Nothing!

Nothing in this town, nothing in this graveyard, and nothing in my search.

Eight months.
