:: She Goes Away ::
Although I do not know her personally
I know she must have helped create history
For Singapore; and hence, every Singaporean
Myself included, is affected, in many indirect sequences
Of her being. And as she passes, I offer a silent prayer of respect,
For the many unknown sacrifices she must have made
In the birth and progress of this young nation.
While the good times get better, we must not
Forget the painful process of becoming.
Thank you.
