David Eagleman had a philosophy for death
The first death is when you take your last breath
And your body ceases to function
The second death is your funeral conjunction
When you are consigned to your grave
And your friends and family show their grief wave
The third and final death is the saddest of all
When your name is spoken in its last call
So these three deaths will mean for everyone the end
And the sadness of it is for all to comprehend

I would like to translate this poem
I find it sad that we do not value the importance of someone until they die. A great write.
