Only Questions Remain

What story led her here to rest cold upon the warm earth?  
 
What loves were won and lost?  
 
Who grieves now?  
 
Whose child does she carry? What life might have been?    
 
How can such beauty come to such cruel ends?  
 
Is there a place to store the beauty and  
sadness that remains?

Author's Note
After reading a news account of a murder nearby, these questions came to mind. I wondered if the perpetrator had any of these questions.
