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.
