(a work of fiction) Victoria was sweet with bright eyes That lit her smile with grace But her spirit was even brighter Than the beauty of her face Now Ronnie, he was a rebel He wore a constant frown When Victoria is described as golden Ronnie, I guess he’d be brown He worked hard at all he did But life had dealt him no ace Until the fateful day He laid eyes upon Victoria’s face In love he fell in an instant When she smiled and spoke with him It took hours and hours and days to pass To get rid of his foolish grin And each day she would walk past him He’d practically do cartwheels to get a rise He was addicted to the laughter That shown from Victoria’s eyes This affair it lasted a lifetime As though sanctioned from up above Victoria brought Ronnie meaning And Ronnie brought Victoria love The twist to this sweet little story Is that they two were seven and eight And their lifetime it suddenly ended In what we often call fate They met in a ward of a hospital Cancer victims with nothing left to try And the end you’ve now guessed it Victoria and Ronnie do die But how wonderful that they met And found joy in each other as friends I hope we all know that feeling When life for each of us ends. Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind... |

You tugged at my heartstrings with this sad tune. But it's a well written song that celebrates the joy of life, even when that life is of short duration, it can be filled with love. [This message has been edited by Midnitesun (06-05-2002 01:41 AM).] |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Michelle, this is so very sad, sweet friend, it saddens me to see them end their lives like that, although I also feel glad at least they got to meet and their love will last forever and nothing can ever change that! (sad sigh) This is sad but beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Michelle, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
