why why why why?
why is the sky blue?
why is the grass green?
why do you have freckles?
why is this orange?
why is this red?
why are you working?
why arent you here?
why does she look scared?
why do you love kix?
why are you typing?
why are you so sad?
why does a camera flash?
why did you tell them?
________________________________
if i die
ill die in the summer
ill die in the summer for you
if i die it will be sunny
and the entire sky
will be blue.
a winter death
as cold as ice
id never put you through.
you would never make it
through those long dark days
i wouldn't want you to be mad
and wish that i had stayed.
at my funeral celebration
we'd all be dressed in white
and we'd have it outside
in the glow of summer light
and in the heat
80 or 90
you could wear a pretty dress
with flowers in your hair
some boys you might impress
and id ask you to sing
as you tossed my ashes
into the windy june
and we'd dance in the water
surrounded by bees
and the flowers all in bloom.
and you wouldn't be sad
because you'd know i had wished
that you'd dance and laugh all night
because my death
is not in vain
in the gleaming summer light
