Just keep walking, don’t look down
Ignore the past and where we’re bound
Live in the moment, the second, right now
But that’s not enough when you take your bow
We think we don’t need, we think we’re okay
There’s always tomorrow, always next day
“I know I’ll get better, I can work on it later”
But you’ll find if you don’t, it’s the people that matter
If something flew at you from around the bend
That altered and rushed and changed the end
I wasn’t, I didn’t, dreams unfulfilled
But the question I land on is “How will they feel?”
Friends and family, daughters or sons
Will they celebrate, mourn or forget when you’re done
When it comes down to it, it’s not what you bequeath
But the hearts that you’ve touched and the memories you leave
So here’s the thing
One lifetime isn’t very long in the long run
Stuff could fly at you just around the bend
When it really comes down to it
It’s the people you love, the people that love you
That makes your true legacy
If this was it, your very last day
What would you do, what would you say
We think we don’t need, we think we’re okay
There’s always tomorrow, always next day
I wasn’t, I didn’t, dreams unfulfilled
But the question I land on is how will they feel
One lifetime’s not much, so here’s the thing
Take care what you live for, the song that you sing
Yes, live in the moment, just remember the people
If you’ve loved and you’ve been loved, your life will be full.

Description:
Now, this poem I can't claim as my own, but I wanted to share it with Gaia. My best friend Stephanie wrote this a month before she passed away from cancer.
I have put this up with the permission of her family, so don't have anyone coming after me going "RAWRZ THIS ISN'T UR WORK!!!" because I am fully aware of that. I'm just sharing something with you. If you want, you don't have to vote on the poem. Just read it.
