The ground was cold beneath her feet
His paws licked darkest red
And teeth memorialized with dead
They paused to let time skip a beat
As if time could ever make them complete
Because after all was done and said
Their brother was dead, was dead, was dead.

Symphonies of sirens at their peak
Begrudgingly showed him the way
And now with snow all that was left
Maria cried, too horrified to speak
There was nothing Ryan could ever say
To mend the rift of the worst kind of theft.
