When our names are no longer whispered
From the lips of our successors
When our achievements are but a distant memory
To those who inhabit the future
It's easy to forget
We continue to live
Through the will and actions of others
Like a domino effect
All it takes is one person
To change the world
The ability to influence is passed down
Like the soft ripples in a pool
Till the cycle starts again
Forever repeating itself
From the lips of our successors
When our achievements are but a distant memory
To those who inhabit the future
It's easy to forget
We continue to live
Through the will and actions of others
Like a domino effect
All it takes is one person
To change the world
The ability to influence is passed down
Like the soft ripples in a pool
Till the cycle starts again
Forever repeating itself
Thoughts that influenced this poem:
-Why the ability to influence others for the greater good of human kind is so important.
- I want to leave the world knowing its in good hands and that i've made it a better place whether its on a small or large scale.
- Inevitably I will become an uncle, a god father, maybe father and I have to set an example and selflessly make the world a better place.
