Not ashamed to write a poem.

Post by mglviks »

My wish before I go

When I'm old and feeling weak
I think I might just seize to speak
Instead I'll use my ears to listen
And hear my thoughts that I've been missing
I'll remember the moments that made my life
I'll think of my kids, I'll think of my wife
I'll think of the moments good and bad
I'll remember all the fun I had
I wish my mind to be at peace
I wish my heart to be at ease
I want to know when I'm near my end
I need not speak for alls been said
I'll dream this dream while on my bed
That I reached my goals inside my head
I want to leave with no regrets
I need to know I've made amens
I need to know this before I rest
I want to know I did my best
I hope I feel like I always tried
I hope I have this, before I die

That's a nice poem!
I don't give a fig for the simplicity on this side of complexity, but I would die for the simplicity on the other side of complexity.

i hope you live long enough to hold some grandchildren in your arms when they're babies and watch them grow.
