Symbolism in the show

There’s a lot of good symbolism in the show that I think gets looked past. I’m rewatching and I’m on season 5 and Abraham has a cut on his hand and it keeps opening back up. I take that as symbolism of his past trauma and depression that opens back up. You see a scene where it opens up when he punches Eugene after he finds out he was lying about Washington. This symbolizes that everything he did and worked for was a lie and that opens his past wounds back up. I also think the walkers in general symbolize the unfair cruelty of life. There’s a scene when Carol is in her car crying and a walker pounds on the window and she screams at it to go away like she’s screaming at the cruelty of the world to leave her alone for a second. Is there any other symbolism you guys have seen in the show?
