An angel who had to die to save millions once told me that you looked like you had always been by my
side, and always would be.
Now you lie before me, still and lifeless in the photon tube, victim of your own valued sacrifice.
Like her, your life paid for the lives of those around you whom you treasured.
But she was right--you are still by my side, and there forever will you remain. Your voice will
speak languageless words in my heart throughout my waking moments, and the feel of your kiss will
never leave my lips.
