Remeber Me

I was walking along the beach one sunny day,

And I watched as the tides slowly slipped away,

I look behind at the footprints I had left in the sand,

Slowly I walk as I had a cane in my right hand,

I think to myself of the footprints I will leave behind,

Will they be secure or wash away in time,

Will my memories carry on with each passing day,

Or will the people I love the most let them slip away,

My footprints in this life I leave for you,

So you can carry on knowing my love for you was true,

With each passing breath and each smile I had,

So raise your head my love for I am not dead,

For in your heart is where my footprints will be,

So that with each passing day you will remember me……..
