Journey

A sweet and tender soul
That I once knew and loved,
Who once loved me,
Has taken wing and
Left this plane
And moves now
Through eternity.

She knows the answers
We all pose
The ones we'd die
To know,
The secrets sealed
Beyond the grave
The wonders death
Bestows.

So love her now in memory
But pity not her state--
She's in a new dimension now
And such is all men's fate.
