If I die very young, hear this:I was never anything but a kid playing.I was a heathen like the sun and the water,I had the universal religion only people dont have.I was happy because I didnt ask for anything at all,Or tried to find anything,And I didnt find any more explanationThan the word explanation having no meaning at all.
