mortem
I don't want flowers on my grave nor long eulogies penned down. hand me a petal now, just one, and spare a few words of love, if there be any. dont remember me, after I pass, come to me now, while I stay. don't wish me peace in the heavens, bring it down for me here on our little planet. don't wait till my breath but cease to whisper sweet nothing to deaf ears, for, eager ones are waiting endlessly, for all that is to be said. don't let me, oh time, to go into my eternal sleep, without showing me all the love, that lies in closed up hearts...
