Warning: Contains Firefly spoilers

 

Death,

Sudden and swift,

Unleashing grief and pain.

Gone the laughter,

Gone the fun,

Gone the playful spirit.

No more will toy dinosaurs fight,

No more will the pilot float like a leaf,

No more will Hawaiian shirts brighten up the darkness.

 

No. No! No acceptance.

Revel in the beauty that is

Willing suspension of disbelief

And simply disbelieve.

Instead,

Write on.

Write the stolen life,

And it will continue.
