Oh,
to be
remembered
Oh,
to memories
serve
Oh,
to cheat
the reaper
Oh,
to strike
a nerve
Oh,
to light
the candle
Oh,
to be
a spark
Oh,
to live
inside you
Oh,
to smite
— the dark

What a beautiful piece, Kurt. The desire to be remembered grows into something larger here...to leave warmth, light, and a little resistance against the darkness in someone else. Quietly powerful, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Nicely said Kurt we all want to cheat the reaper but so far no one has.
