One So Lovely

The death of one so lovely
Is truly a tragedy
Of the grandest scales
Unmatched by most

When life once breathed
Its lovely aroma into
Her ever tender
Body
It was full
Of beauty and love
Of compassion and kindness

Yet when death took 
Its ugly hand upon her
Beauty and drained
It all away
Yet even in death 
Her beauty still shines
As bright as a thousand suns

Tis such a tragedy 
To take someone
Away who brought
True happiness and bliss
To even the most depressed

Tis a tragedy 
That will never
Be fully forgiven
