write me

immortalize my life
as I take my last gasping breaths behind this mask
go beyond my lifeless form
see past the reticent tears that stream
from my living eyes
in the place of the dead

write me in this moment

your words inscribed upon my skin
with your expressions take me apart
like plucking petals from a daisy
strip me
and make me
bare
and
beautiful
for eternity

write me with grace

find some magnificence in me
weave it carefully into the fabric of time
my life coupled with your tongue and pen
enduring
amarathine
constant
eternal
because
words are everlasting
they may lie forgotten, covered in dust
but they wait to be rediscovered
they may feel lonely but just until
a mindful eye sees

write me memorable

please
