Too many emotions to convey our love & loss, always loved, always remembered, starlight, starbright, live forever in our hearts & everywhere. Marcus & Sandie.

When the Light Fades
How bright the eyes
A gentle spark
How sad it is
When they go dark
That flickered flame
Of many hues
It shows our shame
And all our truthes
And all of our joys and loves and lusts
Every thought reflected in the fire
Whether we are good
Whether we are just
Whether we would do
Everything we must
And as the fire burns
And the world slowly turns
It waxes and wanes
Growing slowly dim
Warm black coals barely glowing
One last thought clearly showing
And as the roving eyes take their last sight
The bright eye becomes dull
The lids grow heavy
And the light behind the eyes
Finally fades and dies
