Day To Die

A single tear ran down the face
of a girl with no elegance or grace

Today is the day of death
the day he took his last breath

This is a time to mourn and be sad
but for them it is only a fad

Two roses are laid on a grave by the beast
but at least she is the one who treats

A remembrance of him will always be kept
even though he sleeps where the angles are kept

My dedication to this great man
and ill keep moving forward; at least that's the plan
