Final Words
There she lay
No beautiful smile
No sparkling eyes
All life's energy spent
Now peace
In eternal sleep
She is gone
Only if we forget
The love she gave
Is ours to keep
We who knew her best
Are bound by her noble way
To heed a greater love
Beyond flesh and blood
Let us sing her song again
Love is the key
Her spirit is ours
For all eternity
