A Word on the Dead


I'm not sure if this is a poem or not, but I am certain that it is in fact something.


A Word on the Dead

The dead can haunt you,
and yes it is fun for them.

They can hold a grudge,
and they won't let you forget it.

They can let you know that they are there,
but they won't.
They can say hello if they wish, but they often don't.

They will, when required, comfort you,
and when not required they will provoke you.
They can walk with you, talk with you and teach you.

They can remind you to remember them,
and when it is necessary they will let you forget.

They will laugh with you,
they will cry with you.

But they will never leave you, never forget you.
Even if you have to forget them for a while.
