Unprovoked tears streaming down
Walking quietly through town
Contemplating; what is death?
What does it mean to take your last breath

A life as fragile as a piece of glass
Nothing is infinite, all life must pass
But then why does it seems so unfair
Should not death be something rare

Something we only face when we are old
When the stories of our lives have long since been told
But we are not masters of our own doom
Sometimes it just arrives far too soon

I look back at the time we spent
Didn't realize back then how much it meant
Far too much was left unsaid
Far too early from this life you fled

To me you were always the very best
That is why it hurt so when you were put to rest
The wounds in my soul will never heal
Everyday over and over this pain I will feel

But rest assured we shall meet once more
At least according to the Bible's lore
For who could deserve more a place in the sky
Than a beautiful angel like you, so fly!
Fly up high and look down and smile
Your life was after all incredible and worthwhile
