Unrest grips me as we take in

her pale stare, her lifeless eyes.

Too soon it seems, but here we are.

The flames lick higher as they char.

Burn the remains,

but remember their names

Though you're deseased

they can't kill your memory.

Just hold onto life lessons

they've taught you.

And do not frown.

Vengence will come around.

Kneeling down near freshly dug soil.

Relive the past, relive the horror.

Sorrow fills my empty soul.

The mysery, so abysmal.

Mourn for the ones we could not save.

A tragedy, an unjust fate.

Forever here you will remain

beneath the stone that bears your name.
