Eternal Sleep

Sleep comes to her as she closes her eyes
 From this sleep she shall never wake
 Peace she brings to those she hurt
 Happiness comes to those whom hated her
 Pain comes to those whom loved her
 In this sleep she dances with her father
 No man cries for her heart
 No child cries for her love
 Not one person is sadden
 Eternal sleep is what she is doing
 Forever gone from all she shall remain
 Memories of her erased from others minds
 Nothingness becomes her past
 No future shall she see
 Sleeping for ever she does
