PLEASE COME SEE ME

by David Knape

Please come see me
before I die
it would be so nice
to talk of things we used to do
the places where we used to live
the things we had in common
there is such joy in the remembering
yet it has been too long
now we no longer know each other
and only meet at funerals
every ten or 20 years
still we can relate
our memories bind us together
please come and see me
so that we can talk
and laugh at all our past mistakes
all the funny things we did
remark how things have changed
please come see me
before I die
it would be so nice.
