Epitafio Antes de la Muerte
There will be regrets
When I am gone,
When you can no longer
Hold my hand.
Don't shed a tear for me,
Don't cry for my name.
Don't say a prayer for me,
Nor put flowers on my grave.
I will have no need
For meaningless epitaphs,
Nor prayers for the dead,
I will face the Maker on my own.
I will lay bare my Soul,
The Maker have seen it all-
My deeds, my thoughts, my flaws.
I have no fear.
Because I have loved and cried,
I have pained and hoped,
God knows I tried.
I gave my best to the people I love,
I tried to do good
be fair to others,
And yes I love with passion-
No in-betweens.
So save your words,
Say what you have to say,
Your love, your hate for me,
Say it while I'm still here.
Too late for apologies later.
