Excellent job on this piece. The imagery and word choices are great. Very heart wrenching. The emotions run so deep.

Dim lights have but flickered upon the dead soul
Clueless inside of what had gone wrong
To leave such a thought of a hope that was stole
Taking away the laughter... the song.

How sad these lines to have the laughter and songs gone from childhood.
