DO NOT CREMATE ME

I was looking for you
everywhere
underneath the blankets
you were not there
underneath the bed
you were not there.
Walked to the garden
forgot about you
watered the plants
stirred the rich dark soil. 
Worms came out
looked at me 
and some
crawled back
into the terrain.
One worm stayed
their leader perhaps
saw my face and said:
It is you I am looking for.
