Forever Young

Call my name
let history sing of my deeds
both good and bad
 Let the world know
I have lived
bleed 
shed tears
 Watched the world
from on high
and from the depths
 Adding a page to history each day
having been a marvel
and a mince
 Looking back on it all
seeing myself 
and all that has been
wondering if a second chance was given
would I do it all again
 In a heartbeat
knowing this life 
has been no waste
having had so much
giving of myself
the lives I've touched
and changed
 My journey
has not come to its end
it is only beginning
