Listen to what I say
For I will die one day
But for now
I am alive
Just for a moment of time

Don't be sad
For when I die
I will still
Be alive

My heart may be dead
But my soul will be alive
You won't be able to see me
But I will always be with you

No matter what
Just remember
That I...
I love you

The author's comments:
I wrote this because well when I ever do die I want them to read something that I wrote. That will actually be respectful to read at my funeral. My sister looked it over and thought I was suicidal. I said no I just want someone to read it at my funeral for when I do die.
