Who Will Mourn? Poem by Sophy Iminzah

I wonder who will mourn when I die
Will all those I know or who know me cry?
My friends sorrowfully, my enemies gleefully?
Will sympathizing strangers join my family?

Could I exit for just a while or perhaps a day
I could then resurrect so that to see I may
In my life who is part of the false crew
If in my life there are those truly true

Who and who will break down and languish
Why and how they’ll bewail should I perish
The words they would say, the weeping
What they would do in case of my sleeping

I do not want a pining or forever exiting
An advance knowing would be interesting.
