Troy

You lived a life hard and fast

          didn’t slow down to take a breath

          but knew it couldn’t last

          suffered a fate worse than death.

.

          No escape from routine torment

          just trapped in endless time

          suddenly, you were set free

          by fates twisted rhyme,

.

          to enjoy life once again

          no more the dreaded pill

          life in another world

          where pain and suffering are nil.

.

          United with a family past

          no more to grow sick or old

          a place of lasting peace and joy

          a place where only happiness beholds.

.

          Your journey reached its final end

          as you entered through the door

          the darkness of the soul destroyed

          Your light will shine forever more.

.
