Dedicated to Karl Campion, who passed from
this world June 10th, 2010, and to the legacy he
has left behind; his wife, Cheri and three children,
Jean-Luc, Jeremiah, and Amelia.
A heartbeat slowly diminishes
and stops, while the world carries on.
Other hearts stop, if only for a moment
as love dies,
and look to the world in astonishment
and wonder how can it go on
without noticing that another heart has stopped?
How does ones passing
barely get noticed
when all the world
is diminished by the loss
of a soul,
and all that is left behind
is legacy?
