WHEN I AM DEAD (POEM)



When I am dead, your tears will flow,
But I won't know
Cry for me now -instead !    
When I am dead, you will send flowers,
But I won't see
Send them now - instead !
 
When I am dead, you'll say words of praise,
But I won't hear
Praise me now - instead !
 
When I am dead, you'll forget my faults
But I won't know
Forget then now - instead !
 
When I am dead, you'll miss me a lot,
But I won't feel
Miss me now - instead !
 
When I am dead, you'll wish,
 you had spent more time with me,
Spend it now - instead !!
 
Please spend time with every person you love, every one you care for. Make them feel special, for you never know when time will separate you forever.
