Death is not the greatest tragedy, Great tragedies begin Where stories don't end, In death, or in life; In life - "what might have happened?" is the slow poison that wears us down, with hearts heavy and hollow, waiting for answers 'till death. And death is not the greatest tragedy. Life left incomplete is.

The greatest tragedy
Death is not the greatest tragedy, Great tragedies begin Where stories don't end, In death, or in life; In life - "what might have happened?" is the slow poison that wears us down, with hearts heavy and hollow, waiting for answers 'till death. And death is not the greatest tragedy. Life left incomplete is.
