PAMELA

My eyes are weary

I’ve cried my heart out

My heart is heavy;

A life has faded out.

No desire to make merry;

My joy totally ran out.

I’ve lost a dearie;

Irene Pamela Addico.

Our hearts are torn;

We’ve lost a comrade.

Some still cant believe

We lost a model.

We cry and hope

It was just a joke.

But life indeed

Is full of surprises.

She was a brave lad;

Courageous and bold.

Full of energy;

Such a young soul.

A free spirit;

Fun to be with.

Beautiful inside out;

A self-made model.

She knew when to start.

She knew when to stop.

She appreciated everyone

And was loved by all.

Though sarcastic sometimes,

She was full of hope.

Unique, free yet satiric.

She fitted perfectly.

Tyranny snatched her

Untimely from the world,

While she sat

Comfortably in a car.

She had hopes,

Dreams and plans.

Little did she know;

Her time was up.

The moon stood still;

The cold breeze froze.

The night birds chirped

While onlookers watched.

Cars crashed; bones broke.

Blood flowed; injuries sustained.

Tears flowed; the streets trembled

That dawn you left.

We pray you get to heaven,

So we can see you again.

Or maybe paradise,

For the sweetest gain.

But if you end in hell,

Well, it will be a big shame.

For your loss

Taught us through pain.

That, time and tide

Waits for no man.

The mystery we awaited,

Is now history.

We learn to remember

Our creator in our youth.

One day BORN,

One day GONE.

REST IN PEACE my sister

Rest, in perfect peace.

God be with you

Till we meet again.
