Your body in flames
Unable to call out our names
Slowly you gave up your breath
In agony, you met your death.

Your image disfigured
Consumed beyond recognition
Our estate beleaguered
Volatile things and their ignition.

Our eyes blinded by tears
Consolation and its lost appeal
The act confirmed our fears
The pain is deep - for real!
