Live Forever

Live Forever
Shine your light everyday
as if it were your last
Hold tightly to the little moments of the present
for soon it will be the past
Lend a hand or even a word
to a stranger or friend that needs love
Be caring and compassionate towards people
and not to seek reward from up above
Stand up for yourself and all your friends
Open your heart and mind unconditionally
so there is no beginning and end
Be recognized as someone who was brave
and fought with all they could
Last, be remembered for all that you did
and not for which you should
