The Final Second of Life

Beep…..beep
Did I lead a good life?
Beep…..beep
Did I do everything I wanted to?
Beep…..beep
Did I make at least one person smile?
Beep…..beep
Did I love the way I should?
Beep…..beep
Did I share my hopes and dreams?
Beep…..beep
Did I use the talents the way they should have been used?
Beep…..beep
Did my words make one person think?
Beep…..beep
Did I make a difference?
Beep…..beep
Did my children know that I loved them?
Beep…..beep
Will anyone remember me?
Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
