"A Question For The Beloved One..."
Christopher Flournoy
When I am dead and I am no more
Will you love me then, Dear?
Will you love me as you did once before?
When I am dead and I am no longer near
Will you hear my whisper from beyond the veil and through the tears?
Will you hear my heart still beating for yours as in all these long passed years?
When I am dead and I am gone from your sight
Will you see me in an apparition's gray and meaningless light?
Will you see me in the noon day sun or in the moon of deep and dark nights?
When I am dead and I am but a vestigial memory
Will you remember me with a vaguely strange and unseemly sympathy?
Will you remember me amongst all things you've known amongst all the menagerie?
When I am dead and I am no more
Will you love me then, Dear?
Will you love me as you did just once more?
