Have I Lived

Have I Lived? I used to feel time was endless that it was on my side It seems as though I'm mistaken time seems to have lied My life is close to ending many say they've lived life full I wish this was the case for me over my eyes I guess there was wool I missed out on many minutes and days, months, even years I was simply just existing now I sit here alone with my tears I can wish this and want for that truth is that does no good I should have paid attention and lived my life where I stood I feel like I've got nothing to leave with people in my life I wanted to be remembered not only as someone's wife But all I have is who I am I'll stand firm in my own self worth For if you know me you'll know I tried to do my best while I was here on earth. 4/27/21
