Left Behind - Love Dance

All the world is a stage
 and we are but actors, singers, musicians, poets,
those ordinary people living through history
 attempting to leave some mark
to be raised in an unforgettable  memory
 that survives all our trials and tribulations.
If only we each of us
 could leave something behind
that the world can find a message
 some hidden treasure that continues to live
after us.
 and the love we shared in living beyond ourselves
for others.


Leonard Cohen's Dance Me to the End of Love
