Shotgun
Don't start a war when I'm gone.
Don't shove newspapers down the throats of those
who didn't care if I was standing in front of
or lying beneath them.
Don't cry.
Don't shiver at those with the same name.
Don't try to solve a mystery like you're reading a novel
and I was nothing but a character.
Live on.
Keep going.
Don't look back.
Move forward.
I beg of you,
celebrate the times we had
when we felt like we could take on the world.
We were two kids who didn't even know death's name.
Don't start a war when I'm gone.
Get in your car and drive.
Go places you always wanted to.
I'll still be in the passenger seat.
Morning, night, forever.
I will smile when you smile.
I will see you do such great things.
When we said forever, I meant it.
