A man lies here,
Beneath this pile of dirt.
A man so bright, yet he
Dimmed himself in front of
Strangers’ eyes,
In order to stay silent.
This pile of dirt
Is the only home he ever owned,
Even though in his life
He loved many places.
His heart belong to God,
But he gave it out freely,
As if it had no worth.
His eyes were always dull,
Hiding his true feelings,
As he did not care
For this earthly world.
He had many friends,
But he died lonely,
Although not alone.
Many had stolen his heart
But only one kept it
With the touch of an angel.
She was his only hold
In this world.
Don’t mourn this man,
Rather, mourn his dreams,
His hopes, and those
That knew him,
For none of them could find
The real him.
As you read these words upon
This stone which
Tears, fiery red
And hotter than the most passionate
Love,
Have burned on this rock,
Weep not.
You did not weep for him
When the worm of a lost love
Burned through him,
So weep not now that
The worm of the earth
Feeds of his carcass,
For he is finally at peace,
And you never knew him.
All you need to know now
Is that he loved a happy love,
Even for a while.
