Death is nothing at all
Death is nothing at all
It does not count
I have only slipped away into the next room
Nothing has happened
Everything remains exactly as it was
I am I, and you are you
And the old life that we lived so fondly together
Is untouched, unchanged
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still
Call me by my old familiar name
Speak of me in the easy way which you always used
Put no difference into your tone
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh, as we always laughed
At the little jokes that we enjoyed together
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was
Let it be spoken without an effort
Without the ghost of a shadow upon it
Life means all that it ever meant
It is the same as it ever was
There is an absolute and unbroken continuity
What is this death but a negligible accident
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight
I am waiting for you, for an interval
Somewhere very near, just around the corner
All is well, nothing is hurt, nothing is lost
One brief moment and all will be as it was before
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again.
