Will you remember me
After I’m gone?
[[ a s h e s to a s h e s,
d u s t to d u s t ]]
When eternal slumber takes me
Under the earth so cold; no,
I will dissipate into history
Like a hundred other souls
In this graveyard,
This graveyard of forgotten dreams.
Life makes one powerful, yet;
Why is it so delicate?
[[ a s h e s to a s h e s,
d u s t to d u s t ]]
As soft and fragile
As a young tree’s leaves
Easily carried off
On the slightest misgiving breeze.
When life has left them,
Will you remember
Your dear departed ones?
[[ a s h e s to a s h e s,
d u s t to d u s t ]]
Oh, the memory may remain
But how long will it last?
Only as long as reminders stay.
Shapeless, immaterial,
Precious memories -
Sweet as
A dropp of honey
Bitter as
The bite of cold
As fleeting as
Sparkling dew in the morning sun.
So when I rest in peace
Under the earth so cold
Will you remember me?
