The music of loss

at her smile so bright and pure,

fills our hearts with pain.

Wrapped in arms so sweet,

he is taken, but with whom

he shares endless bond.

in mind, spirit and soul, but

alas, she joins them.

With wings on her back,

she flys towards so land pure,

only the best land.

never made, sitting there cold,

as he is taken.

towards freedom of killers.

She is remembered.

never again will she see

those whom she had loved.
