Life waits for no one
Five days before christmas
You were taken from us
In a smoke filled room
You died

Time stoped for a moment
And forgot to start again

She said they tried to get you to breath
But broke your bones instead

Out of the smoke
Into the fire
They cremated you
Ashes scattered

Doves flew for you
White and pure above the sky line

There are so many things
Left forgotten
So many things
Left unsaid

Life waits for no one
Fires always kill

I will never forget you
Tattoed on my body

11 years young
Not enough time to live

I love you
