There will be flowers, flowers for the grave.
They too will whither away, turn to dust and crumble.
In the winter the leaves will fall from the trees, leaving them naked to the snow.

I hope you stay warm.

It's been so long since we last spoke. it will be even longer before we meet again.

Lost in memories, full of grief, fresh flowers in my hand for you. they are full of life. that's how I'll remember you.

I'm slipping away, getting sleepy. Is this how it felt for you? Was it easy?

You were too good.

It was easy.

You closed your eyes and never finished your dream.Never again will you dream.

Never again will you taste,
No longer can you touch,
Satin is all you will smell.
Your closed eyes see only darkness.

And your ears, what do they hear?

Nothing. They are the loneliest part of you for their eternal friend beats no longer.

But you will go on, things will get better. Soon an angel will come and wrap his wings around you. You will be free.

Before you go, see hte light. It will be shining in my eyes, reflecting off a tear.

Know this:
My tears will fall for you. I will cry at the loss of a friend. But hte tears will dry, and i will smile. I will smile for you, for the memories I have.

I will listen to my heart.

My heart won't lie.

It is broken, it won't heal for quite some time. It will tell me that it hurts and mourns the death of someone good.

My heart will grieve.

But my heart will not lie.

The flowers on the grave are old and dead. they're crumbling away.

Before you I lay fresh ones, full of life and new.

As long as I remember you, there will be flowers.

When the flowers are gone, and no more appear, come find me at the gates.

I'll be waiting for you, my friend.

They will bring flowers for you, and they will bring flowers for me.

As long as eternity lasts

There will be flowers.

~I wrote this for my friend who committed suicide Jan.1,2003. Jeremy, you'll never be forgotten.~

LONG LIVE MRGREEN!!!!!!!
