A farewell from Sissi

A farewell from Sissi

Nathalie

Love never goes away,
Death is nothing,
I have only passed into the next room,
I am me, you are you,
What we were to each other, we still are.

Give me the name you've always given me,
Speak to me as you always have,
Don't use a different tone,
Don't look solemn or sad.

Keep on laughing,
What made you laugh, must stay that way,
Pray, smile, think of me,
Let my name be spoken at home as it has always been,
Without a trace of shadow.

Life means everything,
What it has always meant,
It is what it has always been,
The thread is not cut.

Why should I be out of your thoughts,
Simply because I'm out of your life,
I look at you, I wait for you, I'm not far away,
Just on the other side of the road,
You see, everything's fine.

That's what my little SISI (Cyriel Yorshirt) would say to me.
