Do not weep over my grave
Do not waste your tears and lilies
Do not clutch at the hand of your almost lover

Do not read a eulogy
Do not pretend to have liked me
Anymore than you were forced to love me

Do not have a party
Do not celebrate my life
Do not force my memory

All I ask is take my ashes
Away and to the sea
And bury me below the waves

Do not waste your life to miss me
