I Decided That I Haven'T Seen 1 Poem That Moves Me To Share My Genius

I KNOW WHAT I WANT MY MARK TO BE When I leave this earth I want to leave my mark But it’s difficult to see a mark in the dark You may as well wear blindfolds over your eyes I want to leave a mark when I say my final goodbyes Some people sit in an easy chair that ain’t easy after all Some people never learned to rise up when they fall Some people regret ignoring the song of a lark But as for me when I go I want to leave my mark There were so many things I’ve done and I’ve seen I always chose being gentle rather than to be mean I made little children giggle as they played in a park But to me all those things aren’t much of a mark If I had my choice of what mark to leave behind It wouldn’t be that people thought of me as having been kind I wouldn’t want my mark to be the things that I do When I leave my mark I want that mark to be you © 2011.….© 2011.…~free cee!~ Phreepoetree

Jeffry-Well I guess you didn't want your mark to be that of modesty for sure, but that is ok, I think confidence is a good thing most of the time. :) Cheers!
