Too Late

Contributed by RealCrystal on Friday, 3rd January 2003 @ 11:00:00 AM in AEST
Topic: Tributes

Left Eye
Why did she, and more have to die?
Don’t even try to console me
Because her soul was set free
Although we may believe that her voice was silenced
But it wasn’t
It was just quieted
Waiting to explode the load of self expression and speech
So far now, that she can’t be reached

The words that were spoken
Could never be bought with any token
Just a token of appreciation
A portion of our ears and participation

But we didn’t listen to her
But we listened to the media
And we didn’t truly hear what she had to say
Until it was too late

Too late to debate
Too late to negotiate
What she did and how she lived
To tell her how much she meant to us, to me
Can’t make up for anything that was done
And now it’s too late for everyone

I know how you feel... I ache for the loss of such a great person, talent, and lady. She was a strong, beautiful woman. She will be missed...

...but I refuse to believe that she won't be back... someday... the world has not seen the last of her fiery soul. Her body is gone, but she will forever live on.

Thanks for the tribute- so wonderful to see it!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
