the morning i die

what will it be like
on the morning i die
will there be quarrels left unsettled
last minute goodbyes
i love yous left unspoken
will it be a rainy morning with mozarts requiem playing in a chapel
will it be peacetime or war among the debris
the morning it is proclaimed
eddie is dead

will dad and mum be still alive
or will i outlive them and be able to spare them of such deep loss
will the languages of capitalism and kindness still be spoken
the morning on the day
i exist no more

what will it be like
on the morning i die
will this text be read
by who and to who
and what memories should it invoke what legacy should it recount
on the day dear ones gather in my name
because i exist no more

will they be there
those who knew my soul
and those who knew my body
who saw how exitement tingled through my whole being
and breathed the same air
that kept me alive in my darkest hours
will they be there
those who had been there the day i arrived
who celebrated thence giving thanks for every hour eddie was there

one day of life will also create value for yourself and your related friend, relative and environment .Some people call this your mission in this life. Even at the time of suffering due to illness or stress, you can also create value.Everything happens daily has a reason behind it. This is beyond human understanding.Some people are born with a bit pessimistic personality. This does not mean the end of the world. If you connect your self with something that will bring you happiness, you will will say" I hope I will live one more day " even at the last day of the life. This is how I find in my religious belief.
