God saw you getting tired when a cure was not to be. So He closed His arms and whispered, "Come to me." You didn't deserve what you went through, so He gave you rest. God's garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best. And when we saw you sleeping, so peaceful and free from pain, We could not wish you back to suffer that again.
