Remember Me

as I write
I write not to fill
this sheet of paper
but I write for the future
so that they will remember
for I write like it is forever

so I write
as I write
I write not for a dime
but for you to know my time
that in my prime
will I still write

As I write
I write because it is my right
these are not just words
but they are the light
illuminating the dark
and making everything bright

so I write
as I write
I write for the name
I write for the fame
I write so that life
will never be the same
