A Tear for Melissa Fay's Birthday  
User:Unknown  
 
 
 It is you, the victim of a senseless crime
� 慯hat has brought me here at this final time
 � �writing words to fill this page
 �  ��because I see my mind
    � �慙o longer is consumed by rage
 
 On this first day of your thirty-seventh year
�   I do cry for you a single tear
 �   慯hat's falling now from my eye
�   �  蟵nd caused by all my fear
     �  慯o witness death and watch you die
 
 I loath this day that is at least a decade long
   and knowing now that you have truly gone
     from here and from us one and all
       has left us with a wrong
         that caused this single tear to fall
 
 Will you go to your place that is within His plan
    while knowing what sadness we have at hand
      to think of you as departed
        absent of this world you ran
         from the life that you and I had started
 
 While you obey what is to be His final call
�  do you not know a single tear will fall
�  � then run so slow, so ever slow
  � �蟵s I consider all
      �慯hat has brought me here, so very low
 
 To part at death was never in our sacred vow
  坟o Lisa tell; where you are now
     that you have breathed your last
��  �yet still you are right here somehow
     �犲nstead of in our past
 
 But still I shed for you this single lonesome tear
  even if I know you are somehow right here
    and though I cannot hope to see you
��  I feel you just so close and near
� �  as the last breath I drew
 
 Until again we meet I must stay true and strong
 � while ever knowing you are truly gone
     I still see you standing tall and proud
� �    watching as I write this, my last song
         then you turn, go to your cloud
 
  When we meet where tears of gladness freely pour
    I will see your smiling face once more
� � � not here on this world of ours
�    � but we will meet on a shore
�       䰄ut beyond the stars.
