Young.

....

Young and gone.

See, they're all here to tell me goodbye.

That's what housed me first,
Now, it's just decaying ash.

They're all here to say "She lived a good life. A short but good life."

They're here to sympathize,
Some fake, some real.

But the realest, I dare say,
Is the one that stands so far in the corner.

Fingers shaking,
A cup of water remaking.

She's dying with me too.

She'll still walk and talk,
But bullocks if she does almost as she did before.

This is my funeral,
Yet she's the one dead.
