Life really can be a mystery
When suddenly, one life becomes history.
A glimpse of her spark in our eyes,
Photo-images of her beauty in our minds.
The murmuring of her kind words in our ears,
And the tales she left behind with her dears.
Now all that remains are our memories
And the comfort of remembering her stories.
Life really can be a mystery
When suddenly, one life becomes history.

libera, I think it's good to remember, as you say, 'the things she left behind'. I like the repetition of the first and last lines, which underlines it. It sounds like you are getting to grips with it in the middle part but then you have to admit that it is still a mystery. Simple and effective.
