    Flash Of White

    A bright light, a flash of white
    Drowning out the screams
    of the chaotic nightmare on fast forward.

    A sister's smile now lost in oblivion
    A mother's strength diminishing
    Through tunnels of sorrow
    A brother's suppressed rage
    a friend's constant melancholy.

    Here we lay you to rest
    As the snow embraces us all
    With what seems to be your presense
    I remember your smile like Christmas morning
    As snowflakes kiss my cheeks and hide my tears.

    It's so cold, still for you, a song
    As I hold the flickering candle
    With eyes cast downwards
    Staring at your newest adventure.

    My knees grow weak and buckle
    My fingers feel the sting of the first sign of winter
    They're throwing earth now, rise up I say!
    Rise up now! This can't be real, you are somewhere smiling
    A prank, a cruel prank from the Heavens.

    With fresh pictures of you still in my mind's eye
    I turn away, I cannot watch them bury you
    After years in my heart as the memories of my youth
    How could they take you away?

    Nearly a year now, how my heart aches
    The life you lived effortlessly, the tapestry you wove from your heart
    outshines mine by a thousand bright lights
    But is drowned out by the thunder
    And a flash of white.
