[Dillon]

Why?
Why are the innocent punished?
Why the sacrifice?
Why the pain?
There aren't any promises.
Nothing's certain.
Only that some get called, some get saved.
She won't ever know the hardship and grief for those of us left behind.
We commit these bodies to the void, with a glad heart.
For within each seed, there is a promise of a flower.
And within each death, no matter how small, there's always a new life.
A new beginning.

Amen
