Here she lies, she's safe at last
She will sleep the millennia away
She's mortal like us we know
Someday we'll all have to go
But right now we don't know what to say
She's gone from here
Yet here she lies
Now she's excluded from all earthly pain
She's closed her eyes
Behind the glass
No sun, no smoke, no rain
Tears and fears and hugs and sighs
She's stoic in her white box
Does she hear us we wonder
Does she see us we ponder
What does this all mean
Here she lies she's safe at last
She's forever eighteen.

Raymond: Yeah, I wrote it... Thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteis she your friend you've been asking us to pray for in your GMs?
ReplyDeleteI was surprised if that's so. What was the cause of her death?
By the way, I love the poem you wrote. It's touching
Hi Charm. Yeah, that was her. She died due to complications of lymphoma cancer. Ayun. Thanks for commenting. :)
