In my sig I have the best lines of a poem that I like - Its a long story but it turns out that I had the poem in my wallett which I managed to lose on holiday, along with 200 euros, etc they were all in the bag at the same time.

So does anyone know how I can find out the rest of it - I can pretty much remember it but not all of it, its a serious request as I like the poem very very much,

Thanks GTP'ers

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 which you always used to.

Put no difference into your tone; wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together.

Let my name be ever the household word that it always was.

Let it be spoken without effort, without the ghost of a shadow on it.

Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was.

There is absolutely unbroken continuity.

What is this death but a negligible accident?

Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?

I am waiting for you at an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner.

All is well.

Thankyou.
 
Awww shucks. Thanks. All of this just wouldn't be possible without the help of a few people. I'd like to thank my mum and dad. A special thanks goes out to google without whom it really wouldn't have been possible...
