my dying wish

by shawn-d-smith

Will my loved ones remember me as a great man? Will I be heralded as a hero in their eyes before I die? Even though I thirst greatly for acknowledgement and love in hopes of becoming someone that matters.. I still wonder if they ever see my accomplishments, before I slumber. I confronted my problems and let it go.. What was holding me back I tossed out the window. Still is it enough? I know there is still much I must do..I acknowledge my own ineptitude.. I'm not ignorant.. I'm not an idiot..  Despite my naivety, I can be quite observant. I pick up on things others miss and retain information.. that I'm certain. casually gathered through conversation or reading human emotions.  I can not see the future, still I hope for a sign, one that tells me that im on the correct path.. One that says my future looks bright.. I countine to belive in hope, I want my love ones will see how hard I try.I don't want to disappoint them, they mean everything to me.. I want them to see how hard I worked to make my goals and dreams a reality. Will I be known as the man I sought out to become? That I'm unsure of.. When I die will I be missed its my dying wish.
