Not, how did he die, but how did he live?
Not, what did he gain, but what did he give?
These are the units to measure the worth,
of a man as a man, regardless of his birth.
Think of me as one at rest,
for me you should not weep.
I have no pain, no troubled thoughts,
for I am now asleep.
The living, thinking me that was,
is now forever still
and life goes on without me,
as time forever will.
If your heart is heavy now,
because I’ve gone away,
dwell not for long upon it,
for none of us can stay.
Those of you who liked me,
I sincerely thank you all,
and those of you who loved me,
I thank you most of all.
And in my fleeting lifespan,
as time went rushing by,
I found some time to hesitate,
to laugh, to love, to cry.
Matters it now if time began
If time will ever cease?
I was here, I used it all,
and now I am at peace.
