Just A Memory

One Of Us, Unofficial Challenge By Kayleigh Fraser

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

If tomorrow starts without me

Am I stuck in yesterday

Will the past be all I see

Will I have seen my last today

And if it’s true, time waits for no one

And I’m truly left behind

Will I be remembered for what I’ve done

Will you remember me as kind

Or will I, just like the minutes

On a clock, just fade away

No one remembering me in it

Another memory betrayed

Or will tomorrow lose some meaning

Will what I offered be revered

Will it tarnish its beginning

With my presence being severed

Will the efforts in my living

Stand against the rush of time

Will a tomorrow, come without me

Be better than the one it left behind
