Don't call me a ghost, that's not my name.
"love me even when I'm dead"
Oh, yes, I am dead, but don't be terrified.
I merely traveled to the next world, and I'm waiting for you.
I still see you and what you're doing.
You can't hide from me.
You ought to stop worrying because nothing happened.
~~~
Continue to live your life as you did before.
Every day, I will watch you from the other side of the planet.
Don't be upset, because I'm no longer alive.
I'll accompany you wherever you go.
We're still together; it's just that we can't talk to each other.
~~~
Don't call me a ghost; that's not my name.
Use my real name, and speak of me in the lovely way that you always have.
Don't shake; don't panic; your tone must remain the same.
Don't cry so much; don't weep; it makes me sad.
~~~
Be glad when you remember the best memories we've shared together.
When you smile, think of my grin with you.
Don't be shy to talk about me just because I'm dead.
Talk about my name without mentioning the ghost in your statement.
Life is all that it has ever meant to both of us.
~~~
It is still the same as it was for me and you.
Why should you crush me out of your mind?
Is it because I'm out of sight?
You said you loved me; don't you love me anymore?
Love me, even when I'm dead!
