I found this poem.

God saw you getting tired,
A cure was not to be.
He puts his arms around you,
And whispered "Come with me."
With tearful eyes, we watched you suffer,
And saw you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not ask you to stay.
Many times we think of you,
And many times we cried.
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.
A heart of gold stopped beating,
Two shining eyes at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove,
He only takes the best.
May the lord make up for all the suffering,
And keep you in his care;
May the lord now help us to cope,
With all that seems unfair.
