WEEP NOT FOR ME Weep not for me though I have goneInto that gentle nightGrieve if you will, but not for longUpon my soul’s sweet flightI am at peace, my soul’s at restThere is no need for tearsFor with your love I was so blessedFor all those many yearsThere is no pain, I suffer notThe fear is now all gonePut now these things out of your thoughtsIn your memory I live onRemember not my fight for breathRemember not the strifePlease do not dwell upon my deathBut celebrate my life
