“One of us will see all the funerals, one of us will see none, and one will have none of us at theirs.”
Made me scribble my thoughts on it.
Friends and Funerals
Or in no man’s land
Does it matter
When I came to the world
Some had arrived
Some arrived later
It didn’t matter then
Doesn’t matter now
Nor will later
When I close my eyes
I won’t be
When they close their eyes
They won’t be
If I go later
Will say the goodbyes with gratitude
Content that the moments we shared
Will always outweigh
Those that we won’t
By tons
And if I go early
It won’t matter to me at all
Won’t matter to you also
For I know you’ll open the bottles
Kept aside
And say your goodbyes
With Cheers !!
This is a very interesting quote. I fully agree with your thoughts
Thanks Sadje. I thought we shouldn’t be negative. Things happen and we have to face them. But it’s better that we are not negative about it.
Exactly! Retain a positive mindset
