When There Was Nothing Left To Ignite Poem by Richard Jarboe

When There Was Nothing Left To Ignite



When there was nothing left to ignite,
My good friend died.
His last words, 'I got pain in my head.'
Then he was dead.

Now, if I die racing to your funeral,
I won't have to grieve,
If I die before they bury you,
I'll greet you when you leave.

We'll talk about give and take,
We'll walk upon the sea,
For what's left of us,
We won't have to retrieve.
