When All That's Left

When all you've left to share are sorrows
No happy days nor sunny morrows
The grave's been dug, just grief awaits
No time to waste then, fill your plates
Go, hold a wake for what has passed
For life's too short; it doesn't last
When all that's left to share's regret
Move on; look up; forgive; forget
