Mattering
What does it mean to matter?
How do you get to matter more,
when your mattering takes
a battering at its core.
Do we want to matter in the moment,
or is it what we leave behind
that really matters?
Does mattering lie in the hands we hold,
In the whispers to the heart and soul
In things we touch,
In the things we leave behind,
In the legacy built up
before we must depart?
How much do you matter?
Is your mattering enough
for self and others?
Or is it just a smattering,
of what you could achieve.
if mattering really mattered.
