Mortal Bones

These mortal bones will one day be gone.

The places I have gone won't matter.

The things I did won't matter.

People will miss me.

But what will they remember of me.

Will it be what I've said?

Will it be what I've done?

I will never know for certain.

These mortal bones will crumble to dust.

Nothing will be left of me,

But memories.

I will make sure that those memories are good,

Because I wouldn't want you to be glad that I'm gone.

I want you to miss me,

And not to be happy that I'm gone.
