Requiescat In Pacem
Requiescat In Pacem
when I leave this world
look not for me under the dried ground
but look up and see me beneath the skies
when I pass from this realm
weep not for my absence from your crowd
but feel my presence in the gentle wind
find solace in my words, those that I've writ
know that this heart belongs to you and only you
that I will always be a part of your soul
on a cold day, let our memories warm you up
and when you are down, let the same memories lift your spirits
look back with fondness and love
it matters not how I leave this world
you were my salvation, my life, my soul
I lived and not merely existed
and this is enough
