She was

She was the embodiment of beauty, a picture of love

Something so beautiful we were given from above

She was the giver that never ceased to give

We were the people for whom she lived

She was a crazy spirit, dancing, laughing, free

Something I wished that everyone could've seen

She was the most selfless person one could ever meet

Without hesitation she would give the shoes from her feet

She was a mother, daughter, sister and friend

And her legacy will live on, with no sight of an end
