While I’m alive
Don’t bother with flowers at my grave
Nor sing a song of brotherhood
To my memory
When I’m long and gone
Rejoice in today
When I’m still here
Tomorrow can be so unkind
Think of me dead now
And relish in finding me breathing
Throw your arms
Around me
And embrace me like found gold
For the eternal sleep
Beckons with ruthless abandon
Raise your cups
And salute what we hold this minute
Do not waste another second
Tell me
You do love me
Before the words fall on deaf ears
And the sound of my voice is no more
Show me
Axel Garcia
