Gone Memory

No one will care about me when I’m gone,
it really doesn’t matter they don’t care,
they have their lives, and they need to move on,
I do hope some remember me in prayer.

And I hope all my sins have been forgiven,
and though are done my days of deeds on earth,
God lets me do good by my prayers in heaven,
which have from there--more than here--greater worth.

Who cares if all have here forgotten me,
for soon there will be left none of my friends,
they will have joined me in eternity,
where their love, just like God’s love, never ends.

What matters is I leave here--as above--
an everlasting legacy of love.
