You Won’t Remember Me

Aware of your own demise, how so, do you remember You won’t remember me either way It’s not that you don’t want to, it’s that you believe you don’t need to How so can such a feeling exist within any of us No need to remember anyone for anything Unless there was value we believe was given us What we feel we must gain to give others value With such a view you won’t remember me You won’t remember the others and here’s the best part You won’t remember you How can this be, you wonder You won’t remember me for all that was said and done You’ll remember only all the times I said no All the times I stepped away and stayed away To be remembered, for what reason What is there to gain to being remembered Does the world change for the better or worse What does remembering do to our humanity towards one another To all beings that live in this same life as we do You won’t remember me And I worry not of this glorious gift already received You won’t remember me unless
