Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Do real life people actually fall in love
with the idea of being in love?

Someone wants desperately to have

They choose the colors for the nursery.
They design all the aspects of their married life.
A real person stands no chance of measuring up to those fantasies.

You're so shallow.
