Beyond the Veil of Death

A tear stained cheek caressing the charred body. No registering the stench A love so true It sees him through beyond the veils of death. He sees her golden hair flowing in the breeze Slender hands, ring adorned blowing kisses in the wind. Rosy lips singing a tune A slender body twirling to the song The tapping of her feet Graceful arms embracing him in everlasting love. Bold green eyes filled with defiance Standing against the flames. No fear, no regret. Only a sad smile Last words whispered against the flames. Forgive them for they know not what they have done.
