Icon and idol
is what you are
a life so tragic
a circus so sad
full of compassion
care and of love
selfless enduring
with eyes for the poor
the downtrodden
adorned your life
You had your share
of smiles
you've been all over
world wide
you've been adored
loved, vilified
too busy too short
your life was cut
but you did it all
you gave it all, how wise
Beauty and fame
you've got
sexy and shy but glad
to hold the hands
of aids stricken souls
of sad sick children
lovingly you've hugged
you knew, you saw
that they were there
suffering in life a lot
Sadness and tears
poured out
as one fateful night
popped out
you've died and left
so sudden
so violent
in that dark tunnel
in that dark car
that crashed
So young and
so vibrant is gone
lifeless and cold
still, stiff all alone
just in a flash
you bid goodbye
no more hellos
but your memory
will always be there
in all our hearts to hold
Princess of Love
Princess of Wales
Princess Diana
the people's Princess
in all of our memories
you'll be alive there
forever and for always
until our last words
until our last glimpse
until our last breath on earth...
To Princess Diana, in her memory...
