Remember Me

When I am gone I am gone I will not come back Life is best summed up as; He lived then he died I came into the world one day I did as I did every day I caused some-things to happen some days And then I left on my last day No need for me to live forever I won’t even try I did as I did Then I died When I am gone I just want to rest Life was not easy It was a constant test In the ground I will go Mourners might even attend Onwards to nowhere I leave As I descend into my grave There is for me No next phase I hope not to be forgotten I must be remembered by a few I hope to bring back happy memories Of those who were Part of my crew They might think of my laughter They might remember an embrace A comforting word Or a heartfelt handshake I am gone I thank those who knew me I was a mixed bag but I tried to love freely God bless you all For caring about me
