I Won’t Be Here… I’ll Be There
By Gloria Faye Brown Bates
If I die, would you notice if I were gone
Would you see the empty space I left behind
Before things shuffled, filling it in

Everyone is gone, even my only child
Sometimes, I wonder when I already know
That some people would really care
Some would shed a tear or two
When I die, it will be a private affair
No one will need to come to see my body
I don’t let anyone come to watch me sleep

Dying is personal, too
I don’t want anyone to come stare at me
No one needs to know when I’m gone
