Rest In Peace

A mad, driven soul thrown into desperate repeat, Lost in the caverns of time and deceit, No more is the happiness and scheming of schemes, Rest in peace, sweet rememberer of dreams. Eyes used to glisten, and smiles used to shine, But its hidden now in the shadows and grime, She had faith in herself, all she had to believe, Rest in peace, the trapped become free. Nevermore will light shed from her crystal blue eyes, Nevermore will hearts be broken when she cries, Held in the arms of the departed she loved, Rest in peace, we know you were done. Drowned in blood and remembrance of her only truth, She was caught unawares, she was given no clues, Sweet faith was lost in a wreck to change lives, Rest in peace, you who left us behind.
