Nor shall i weep
I would just stopped writing
And pursue the art you leave unfulfilled
If you die before me
I won’t build a monument exaggerating our love
Nor shall I construct any mausoleum
Disrespecting your memory
I will go door to door to pay the loan
From them you took.
If you die before me
I won’t take hemlock in memory of you
Nor shall I take myself in like a slug
Nor shall I marry again
I will go to the race of man
And keep the promise, to them you gave.
