Gabriel's Lamentation
Brown Hair Bloody,
 Blue Eyes Shut.
 The dead eyes of the sun
 Looked upon the accident.
 
 The boy, whose death knells
 Were already ringing, met early fate.
 The anger his mother once felt
 Condensed into tears of sorrow. 
 The peacefulness of Rest,
 The loveliness of Death.
 
 The infected crimson colors
 Covered his body,
 His hospital mask and white shirt
 Painted red with blood.
 
 The leader of the iron monster
 Stepped out with apologies.
 But nothing could console his mother,
 For her baby was crushed to death.
 
 Brown Hair Bloody,
 Blue Eyes Shut.
 Floated down the river 
 With a single rose in hand,
 And a kiss on his forehead
 From a mother who never cared.
