Inscription

Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way you always used.
Put no difference in your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we
enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name ever be the household word that it always was.
Let it be spoken, without effort, without the ghost of a shadow in it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the that it ever was.
There is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of your mind because I am out of your sight.
I am waiting for you for an interval. Somewhere very near, just around the corner. All is well.
