"WEEP NOT FOR ME"
Weep not for me though I am gone Into the gentle night Grieve if you will, but not for long Upon my soul's sweet flight. I am at peace, my soul is at rest There is no need for tears. For with your love I was so blessed. There is no pain, I suffer not, The fear now all is gone. Put those things out of your thoughts, In your memory I live on. Remember not my fight for breath Remember not the strife Please do not dwell upon my death BUT CELEBRATE MY LIFE !!!
