LEGACY
Where will i be when this is over,
Will i be the whistle in the wind,
Or will i be the sound in the waves.
Will i become a supernova,
the scent in flowers recently trimmed?
Or just a carcass only found in graves?
Will i be the story parents will tell their children,
The memories which will make my friends sigh,
Or will i be the hurt in my lovers heart?
Will i be the soul on its way to heaven,
The subject of advice given to passers by,
Or the poetry written in parts?
Maybe i will be the wisdom taught by scholars,
The ray of hope for the oppressed,
Or the image of morality in spirituality;
I could be the mind healing sermons from preachers,
The light in the hearts of the depressed,
Or the restoration of love to humanity;
I hope that my name lives on,
I hope that it'll be said of me,
See all the good he has done;
I hope to be the reason why visionaries run,
I hope that a memorial day be set aside for me,
For my legacies which lives through ages to come.
