Epitaph

By Circe Avalon

In accordance to my wishes
those I have loved listen

To those who've loved
and received love in return
You will no longer need mourn
Loved you well I have sworn

To those who never loved me
as well as they loved themselves
May you find that blackness
with in and cast into hell

The things I've left behind, possessions
If they are worth fighting over, give them away
The pictures of memories and what have you
Make copies and celebrate those times day after day

Leave nothing in my honor
I need not be remembered with tribute
Cast me into the arms of the ocean
To the wilderness' last salute

Smile often for me
Let not many tears fall
Dance through this life
it will end shortly for us all

    I really loved this and how you wish for no tears to fall for you.when you die.I write a lot about death too so this really spoke to me.The part about those that never loved you burning in hell...slightly unnerving but I found myself oddly smirking at it.Good work!
