It’ll come a time ,maybe tomorrow if not today,
Your tears will flow ,But I won't know,
Cry with me now instead.

You will send yellow and red flowers,
But I won't see and smell any of them,
Send them now instead

You'll say words of praise and even dirty my name,
But I won't hear and correct my mistakes,
Praise and criticize me now instead

You'll forget my faults, and forgive my debts you owed me,
But I won't know , remember the malicious intents you had on me,
Forget and forgive them now instead.

You'll miss me then , thought I don’t guarantee that,
But I won't feel if you remember or even think of me for just a moment,
Miss me now and call me now instead.

You would wish you could have spent more time with me,
But the time can’t be reversed back,
Spend it now and talk with me now instead

When am dead , you'll come to my house to pay condolence but we haven't even spoken in years.
Or even called once when I was on my sick bed,
Look for me now and care for me instead.

When am dead you’ll remember the last minutes I talked with you,
How happily I was but my insides were burning with a molten lava,
Laugh with me now cause that may be the last moment we could spend together instead.

You’ll remember the way you rejected my proposal,
The moment I confessed how much I love you,
But you made me sad with a harshest rejection that am not your type,
Love me now instead not when am dead instead.

You’ll remember how you never even once supported my work,
Just because I was into poetry , you thought maybe I’ll die poor,
Support me now if you can..

When am dead many will claim that there were my best friends,
And many will claim to know my secrets,
But truth be told I had my friends but not best friends,
Befriend me now instead of its pride that you want,

When am dead you’ll recall how you rejected my respect,
Respect one another as that’s how we humans are made of,
Respect me now instead and not when am dead,

You’ll dig my grave deep so that I would not resurrect,
For the fear of the betrayal you’ve done against me,
But all I know I won’t remember your betrayal at all,

You’ll remember how you talked behind my back,
How selfish and evil intent you had behind me,
Beg for my forgiveness now am easy to forgive but not forget,

When I pass away , you’ll regret the thing you wanted to tell me but you won’t anymore ,
Confess and tell me now instead so that I may know you loved me,

When am dead many will think I’ve died of HIV,
Or some STDs and STIs or COVID-19,
But only one will know the reason behind my death,
Don’t guess instead,

When am dead where will my achievement be recognized,
Or is there certification in after life,
If there is ,
maybe I would be recognized there instead,


You’ll remember my suffering ,
how hungry I was spending without a bread in my belly,
But you never gave me even one plate to feed my hungry belly,
Give me food now and not through a feast when am dead,

When am dead my ex’s will rejoice for my death,
As they have no one to fear or avoid my paths again,
All I can remember is that you gave me the love I deserved to get ,
And I gave you what you deserve but it could not worked out between us.
