What is recorded here

Grave Yards stands in County Louth, Ireland, holding the dead behind stone and soil while the living forget their names. The land may have swallowed kings, thieves, mothers and children, yet no marker remains to separate heroism from hunger. People walked past these graves daily, breathing the same air as the buried and pretending death belonged elsewhere. The yard does not judge, it waits, collecting every life that stops running and dropping each one into its dark patient soil.
