Array ( [sid] => 67286 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => In Loving Memory of Rachel Joy Scott [time] => 2004-10-13 16:18:56 [hometext] => Rachel Joy Scott was a victim in the Colombine shooting. Her memory has touched millions and will touch ten-fold what it has. Her tears will grow the most beautiful roses. We love you Rachel [bodytext] => While your tears
Cascade down the empty void
That is humanity
Growing new life, in purest form
The whitest rose
Grown from your purety
Generations still weep
That a life so beautiful
Could be so carelessly taken
Your hands have touched millions
Myself included
You have started the chain-reaction you wanted
In this void of humanity
You were the brightest light
And you lit millions of others
Because of you
The world is better
Because of you
I am better
I know now
That you are walking through the halls of tragedy
With God
And I can't wait to meet you
