It is not that you were taken too soon, rather it is I who has lasted too long. You remain a memory of youth and beauty, preserved for eternity, and I am the subject deteriorating daily. Lost is my chance for us to pass together, that would have kept us united and unchanged forever. Now the only emotion I have left in sight, is envying your escape without me from this never ending plight.
