Somewhere between the dust and the stars, this is where we lie. Motionless. Humbled. I know. That when I pass on from this world There will be no new books penned no films that tell my tale no newspaper headline. I am. Unremarkable. If I'm lucky. Maybe a handful of people will shed tears. Maybe a single heart will break. Maybe I'll have flowers placed at my headstone yearly. Maybe Her voice will speak my name. Maybe. If I'm lucky.

What We Leave Behind
Somewhere between the dust and the stars, this is where we lie. Motionless. Humbled. I know. That when I pass on from this world There will be no new books penned no films that tell my tale no newspaper headline. I am. Unremarkable. If I'm lucky. Maybe a handful of people will shed tears. Maybe a single heart will break. Maybe I'll have flowers placed at my headstone yearly. Maybe Her voice will speak my name. Maybe. If I'm lucky.
