What You Leave Behind

Life is a shadow that follows you around.

What will happen if it stops?

Life is full of pain and happiness

but sometimes you have a bend in your eyes

that does not let you see the light,

and you are blind for a long time.

The mistakes you make are a part of life

because when it is time to do things

you will do them right.

Should death be the end of life?

Death is like a shining star in a dark night

that you don't want to see until

you get high enough to go with our god,

where he is waiting for you to start a new life.

The life he offers you is full of peace, beauty,

and happiness, without any problems at all...

What do you leave behind in the shadow of life?

The people who love you and will miss you.
