Alive
None of what, none of whom,
Are now dead to me,
Will ever displace,
The importance,
Of those I live among.
Of my mind, of my past,
Their significant part,
Will always remain,
Part of who I am,
They brought me here,
Made me who I am.
Those here now, those about me,
Are now all to me,
They hold a place,
Of importance,
And within my embrace.
