Death has come to visit
I have seen him before
I did not leave the light on
To welcome him for more

I'm feeling now so empty
All those years she was alive
She scrimped and saved her pennies
To leave them when she died

Tell me what the point is
To work and save each day
I'm thinking that there's to much pain
To make it go away

This wasn't meant to be great poetry, just a spontanous expression for a lost soul.A simple salty tear to mark the passing of a human being.

So sorry, Electra...
I hope it wasn't anyone close to you.

I am sorry for your loss,
and I hope that writing out your feelings
has helped...
just know, please, that she did not do things
nor live her life, in vain...
