Evrod Samuel Poet Verse

No One Lives Forever

I will never live forever
I don’t even want to try
Tomorrow might be just another day
Or today the day I die

I will live as long as
I am remembered
But only for a while
Mourners do also pass over
To the other side

I will live for now 
Hoping I will get another day
All I ask for
Is the chance
To say I’m sorry
And bid a fond farewell
