Dust and ember

I would want to be so tiny
For my larger self won't fit
 in an urn but then again,
 i won't worry
I would probably decompose 
slowly, long after being asleep
 on my bed
When the civil workers barge in
Hold their nose closed
They would ask if there is anyone
Who knows me by my name
Yet they would not call me 
By what they have exclaimed
And by then I would have been 
gone too long ago
To know anyone who stakes a claim
