I wonder if I will
be remembered
when I'm gone
I just don't know

I have not done
much with my life
I have never
known love

Who would
remember me
Who would
want to

I'm not famous
I'm not perfect
No man has
ever seen me
the least bit
desirable

I know I have
both family and
a few friends
But will they truly
remember me
when I'm gone

When I'm gone
I don't want to
be forgotten
I want to be
remembered

But will I be
remembered
when I'm finally
gone
I just don't know

Ahhh . . .Yes Angel, you will most definitely will be remembered. Just because you think the worst of you it is impossible to go through life and not leave your mark. Yes, you will be remembered.

Yes you are memorable now, just as you are. You do not need someone else to complete you or to remember you. Like it or not, your family loves you and knows you and will be there for you. Not very exciting compared to a grand romance but much more reliable. Give it time and remember the greatest thing you can be is kind. ~L
