When I’m Gone…All I Ask is This…

When the day comes

The day when I take leave of this place forever

When I’m gone…all I ask is this

I wish to roam the plains through the eyes of those I love

No more do I want my flesh to remain

I shall remain on Earth

But not as flesh

But as ash

O’er land and sea I shall travel

Always carrying whom I love

Friends, family, and beloved

Ask of you, do not shed tears of sorrow but of joy

Where darkness was let there be light

Where there is hatred let there be love

The pyre shall not be one of secrecy but one of where all can see

My sword shall be passed down to my beloved

To whomever it shall be passed down to, it is her decision alone

If there’s deceit let justice come on its own accord

Love is what I ask to be felt

Remembrance as well

When you do see a wolf, horse, dragon, or unicorn

Always learn by the heart 

It could be me…
