Dear Josephine
Did the wings fall off
from your flying machine?
We saw you when you went down
And the light that your comet strew
Dear Josephine
Are you more at ease
than we have been?
It's still empty here, all around
In the shadow since your heart withdrew
Josephine
They took you too early
You weren't ready
Josephine
In your machine,
Your engines died
Oh Josephine,
was it suicide?
Dear Josephine
Did you see the smoke
from your crashing machine?
We never found your black box
Among the debris that you strew
Dear Josephine
Are you in a world
we've never seen?
Maybe you were trapped and locked
While we pondered and our sorrow grew
Josephine
They took you too early
You weren't ready
Josephine
In your machine,
Your engines died
Oh Josephine,
was it suicide?
Dear Josephine
In your flying machine

suicide is one of the things that touch me deeply. especially when someone writes about it so beautifully, like in this one. <3
Thanks hon. Although I just put in "suicide" because it rhymed. xD It was an accident actually. ^^
