Sunflowers Over Suicide
Any Last Words
Plant some sunflowers
where I rest
Know that in the end
I gave it my best
Pretend the days
did not pass me by
Ask the grounds keeper
To keep a watchful eye
Please watch over him
As sunflowers bloom
Bringing brightness
To this yard of gloom
He spent many a days
Fighting this tomb
Often crying
Alone in his room
He was my father
You would have loved him too
