A Poem For Gabrielle

Gabrielle died today but she's not gone...

I look down below,
Where you fell,
But there's no trace,
Far as I can tell.

I will mourn,
I will cry,
Cause I couldn't help,
You as you die.

Finally saddness,
Takes me,
Tears fall and I,
Sink to my knees.

I scream your name,
To the stars,
And they twinkle back,
And I see your love.

I understand,
Your sacrifice,
But I don't know why,
You had to die.
