If I were to 

Drop dead

Tomorrow.

 

Will anyone

Remember 

In sorrow?

 

Would it 

Even make

A difference?

 

Does it matter?

Or am too

insignificance? 

 

Would anyone 

Even Notice

I was gone?

 

Will they

Remember 

The song.

 

I lived

Or the words

I sang?

 

I lived 

As if there

Was no tomorrow. 

 

All the

Words I wrote 

Are all so hollow.

 

I tried to leave

An ink of blood

In a word I said.

 

I tried to leave

A drop of blood

In a lover’s bed.

 

The lives I loved

already forgot

I was alive.

 

The stories I wrote

already dead 

Did not Survive 

 

All that is left

Are two words 

Itched on a stone.

 

Fading away 

Flying like sand 

into the unknown.

 

Just remember 

One day when

You walk on me

 

On a beach

Somewhere 

Besides the sea.

 

That that is 

Where I used

To love and play.

 

And that is

Where I pray 

For one day to stay

    1. Well said Sam. Today I was watching old reruns of “The midnight special” music show and realized so many that appeared on the show are dead. Life is fleeting.

      That picture and your words are perfect matches and a little scary.

      • Thank you… yes it is scary… I guess we are all looking for a legacy or something to be remembered by… it’s our “immortality” or our “holy grail”

    2. Yes I’d know or at least sense it. Idk what I’d do without you because no matter how many disappearing acts I pull you always bring me back. So don’t die on me Sam, I need you.
