Written for those she left behind
Jennie I didn’t know you, although I wish I had,
For two dear friends who did, ache for you so bad
It pains me to know you felt there was no other way out,
Yet two kindred hearts spread the word of a loved one missed without a doubt

I’m certain knowing you would have been a pleasure,
And know you know my friends loved you without measure
Unknown to you, you live on in what they write
You were like sunshine to them on the darkest night

Jennie, you’re missed terribly, and my heart bleeds for those you left behind
I pray that in God’s loving embrace, that peace is what you find
When Marlena and Raven weep for you, I hope you’ll find a way to alleviate their pain,
And hope you’ll send them a message, sweet Jennie, that lets them know you felt the same
