“When I go, don't cry for me In my Father's arms I'll be The wounds this world left on my soul Will all be healed and I'll be whole Sun and moon will be replaced with the light of Jesus' face And I will not be ashamed for my Savior knows my name It don't matter where you bury me I'll be home and I'll be free It don't matter, anywhere I lay All my tears be washed away”

Paul Delaroche, La Jeune Martyre chrétienne, 1856, huile sur toile, Musée du Louvre

"Goodbye, my friend, goodbye  My love, you are in my heart.  It was preordained we should part  And be reunited by and by.  Goodbye: no handshake to endure.  Let's have no sadness — furrowed brow.  There's nothing new in dying now  Though living is no newer." - Yesenin, 1925

That little kiss you stole, it held my heart and soul

And like a deer in the headlights, I meet my fate

Don't try to fight the storm, you'll tumble overboard

Tides will bring me back to you
