I would love for my life to send ripples through time
Such that people remember my name
Who wouldn't want to leave an impact on life
And achieve everlasting fame?
But, nowadays, I think a little less of that
About if the future will remember me
Much more I just try to make the best of today
To improve that which I can hear and see
History will not record me doing small charity works
Or giving my friend an encouraging smile
So if my legacy was all I cared about
Then these actions wouldn't be worthwhile
When I was younger I wished to be remembered
By people whose names I will never know
Now I care more for spreading sunlight around me
Than in finding my own seeds to sow
