When i die bury me by the lake
where i come to smoke in the evening
Bring me some fresh petals
And sprinkle cold water on them
Read me a line or two from my favourite book
Look towards the setting horizon
And tell me the beauty of the iridescent clouds
Tell the breeze to hover around steadily
As it disturbs your long hairs
Tell the sunset not to stay for long
For the beautiful dawn awaits
And I shall be resting in your bosom
Thinking that we are but one
Like a shoe and lace
Or a guitar and strings
In my poetic world
Layered with beautiful and sad words
Is where you and I will live forever
