When I'M Gone

For the first time
My foes will commend me
But neither will I be surprised
Nor have knowledge

Neither will I be shocked
Nor feel loved
Receiving flowers from my rivals 
For I will be gone for good

I will try to blink,
Move my lips to menace
My enemies with an abrupt return,
But my efforts shall be in vain

I will try to rise,
Try to give a kiss to my rose,
Try to give my last words to loved ones 
But voice shall be muted

Beyond my sight,
A thunderstorm of tears,
I shall try to turn back,
Only to find my body statued

They shall weep for loosing someone
Whom they loved so much that...
They would give an arm for
Unfortunately, that someone will be deaf

When I'm gone just carry on
Don't mourn, rejoice every time
You'll hear the sound of my voice,
Just know that;

I'll be looking down at you
Smiling,
Look at smiling for the days 
We enjoyed on earth with Eminem

Children will see mommy crying
Asking why?why?
Why is mommy crying?
Saying Mozy don't leave

No Mozy,
Daddy just stop it!
But I won't be trying to harm or hurt you,
I will be trying to obey Him

So here are my last words
Before I'm gone for good
I...I...I...
I...think I've to go NOW!

Interesting take on seeing death from the 'other side of the coffin.
