This poem won't be silent

Speak it not with your lower voice
Or in a whispered prayer
Tell me and tell yourself
What we need to hear
WAKE THE DEAD
Make every word
Ring Heaven's Bell:

YOU'RE NOT ALONE
I'LL BE YOUR FRIEND
AND STAY RIGHT HERE
THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE
I NEED TO GO
THERE'S NOTHING ELSE
I NEED TO DO
