Even After I Die

Awaken my mind,


But let me sleep.


Unrest my soul,


Don’t dig too deep.


Be a companion, lover, and friend.


Be with me until the end.


Get new ideas,


Share the peace.


Anger me now,


Then let it cease.


Pick me some flowers,


Some forget-me-nots.


Look to the clouds,


Up in the sky.


Grab my hand,


Make me fly.


Live out this life,


Here on Earth.


Follow me to Heaven,


Never leave my side.


I want to Love you,


Even after I die.

This is a good poem about what we want from our lives and what we want to continue after we are gone.
I like the nice short lines - a professor once told why use 10 words when five will do?
