Life's Complete Cycle
It seems my time upon this always-fragile earth
Is coming to its pre-destined ending
My family’s lifeline slowly fading away
From the lines that run throughout this world.
With the passing of each family member
My time creeps ever, ever closer
My good-byes said gives me cause to wonder
Who will be there to express their sorrow?
With the same manner of sadness at my passing.
When someone passes, it creates countless memories
Good and bad, happy and sad.
Will I too leave such things as these memories?
For those left behind to remember me.
