Before you I saw nothing ahead,
Now I can see an eternity.
Before you I was soulless,
Now I give you my soul gladly,
...

New to the world
All sparkling and bright
Your soft little face
Such a wonderful sight
...

Today an old woman collapsed in town and I passed as the medics were working on her. There didn't seem to be anyone nearby that was with her and it got me thinking about how some people die alone.

Falling, falling,
No one there to catch.
...

You're such an annoying little thing.
So squishy and smelly,
You cry all the time.
...

You will rise from the ashes of death,
And enter the gates of Heaven.

You will rise from the ruins of this life,
...

And as time stood still,
She broke.
Into a million pieces over the the world.
But she carried on,
...

I walked through life not being seen,
I walked through life not being heard,
I walked through life not being touched,
I walked through life not being loved.
...
