It was No Accident
A life is gone by a useless act, a shining star snuffed out in the night...

         It Was No Accident

My courage I’ve gathered haphazardly
My steps falter as I approach the bier
Her dainty form lies on satiny sheets
And I curse the one who sent her here.

A midnight drive on rain soaked streets
With a friend who’d drank too much
And now I’ll hear her sing no more
Nor will I know her tender touch

A life is gone by a useless act
A shining star snuffed out in the night
Why me I ask and then I know
I’m not alone for many share my plight
