Graveyards (Fuji's PoV)
Every weekday, the path I cross always involves a graveyard. Ironically, this graveyard is also right next to a school. They have such a wonderful environment for learning in school. The administrators and teachers are probably all "If you don't obey us...you'll know where you are going to go."
That tidbit aside, I find that the graveyard fascinates me...I feel drawn to it. Everytime I see it, I yearn to walk there, to see, to hear, to know that I live and am still alive. Maybe this feeling stems from knowing the universal truth, a truth that a graveyard embodies.
We live and then we die.
Death is inevitable, even though the span of time to reach death is actually getting longer through science. However, there is no escaping finality.
The graveyard has monuments and graves spanning across a huge distance, almost like the spanning white abyss that haunts my dreams. The sense of awe, that sense of loss, maybe even a sense of despair. However, the graveyard still does not have a feeling of complete deadness. It's not barren, trees, grass, and flowers all grow by the graves with cars passing by it almost every single minute.
Come to think of it, I would not really want to be a restless spirit in the graveyard. Too many cars passing by it to succumb to my eternal rest.
Anyways, thanks for reading.
