No Sadness in Mourning

by Carlota Losada Gowan aged 16

Don’t cry at my grave, I’m not there
My spirit has left this plane
But my memories still remain
Talk to me at our favourite park
Come and see me where I left my mark
Cry for me where we first met
Scream at me with all your regret
Don’t cry about my death
Remember my life and its disaster
For I am not worthy your tears
But I will forever be grateful for your laughter
