A World Without You
Listen to poem:
Trust me
Life will go on without you
Remember when you quit your last job
Cleaned out your cubicle
And the very next day
Others picked up where you left off
Things were done differently
But they got done nonetheless
Life is a lot like that
Except you hope people
Will remember you more fondly
As they pick up where you left off
A bit of foresight will go a long way
To help loved ones and alleviate
The hardship of decisions and fallout
A bit of foresight will go a long way
To leave this world a better place
Bring on change in your own special way
