I sit here day by day
Wishing for different things
Things don't really mean anything
In the scheme of things
We are just here for a while
I want my loved ones to out number
my bank account-
And my life
to be more than a 9 to 5
Dying for things I 'love'
That will never hold me when I am sick
Or love me when I'm gone
My imprint on this world
Should be more than my belongings
and an amount of digits
To create something beautiful to leave behind
Or perhaps a kindness or love
Or wise words for someone who needs
That may just stick
Is all I could truly want
In a world like this
poem poetry love kind kindness thoughts you world life hope future heart
