Tell the Dead

Tell the dead

How much you love them

After they died

Tell the dead

You forgive them

For all the mistakes you've made

Tell the dead

You often think of them

Whenever you find the time

Tell the dead

You're gotten happier

Living without their ideals

Tell the dead

The virus that killed them

Was never a threat

Tell the dead

The rising seas, the dying leaves

All of it was their fault

Tell the dead

Dead animals don't affect you

Unless they're on your plate

Tell the dead

You don't plan to join them

New tech will save your hide

Tell the dead

You need their graveyards

The shore has reached your home

Tell the dead

You've no more to tell them

But they've got lots to say

They're waiting to speak to you now

Face to face
