Shine
Life so short
So precious hard fought
There's some that influence peoples life
Others may cause drama and strife
It's rare to find a real star
They can shine on you from afar
When things seem dark and life is making you fray
It's the stars that will shine and guide the way
Today we lost a true treasure
One that will remain in me forever
This star many will remember
They were genuine funny and no pretender
They were lost in a dark place without any sight
So sad they couldn't continue the fight
This person was a rare breed
A true humanitarian indeed
In death they fought but passed away
This was just another day
Until in a moment of time
They were taken it seems such a crime
This star was taken
It's left so many of us shaken
Now the worlds changed forever more
Their light will still shine of this I'm sure
So fun so wise so clever
Their light will shine on forever
Their laugh, wisdom and insight
Can't comprehend they lost the fight
The sun has now faded beyond
Darkness now the land upon
Still a glow will light the night
This star will forever shine bright
Rest in peace
