While her body is asleep,
Her soul is not.
It roams the streets,
It says a lot.
It greets oblivion,
A feminine bow.
It leaves Paddington,
It must leave now.
The world awaits,
So many souls
To greet and meet
Without console.
A small young girl
Taken at twelve
Whose heart now hurts,
"We miss you, Elle."

-L.H.
