UNTITLED

Tosyn Bucknor

“I look to the future and see me cease,
I feel no fear, my face won’t even crease
My steps on this earth, a testament to life,
Leaving this place filled with strife
Don’t cry for me, shed tears for yourself.
For each date you acquire gives you a little less.”

“Now I Know why I live the way I do
And why my mistakes, no second look
If I live my life according to their pace,
What’s my prize in life’s meaningless race?
Too many odds stacked against this fierce soul
So each hour, all I do is attain my goals”

“Spent a lot of days searching for purpose
Then I put my thoughts into poetry and prose
This is why I was put in this world
Be a voice, Put emotions in words
For every tear I shed and times my eye smiled,
Someone will have known every option I tried.”

“This cowardly heart felt fear not death
Prize I’ve earned since my birth
My vow to leave a lasting voice after I was
Find a loyal number to keep fighting my cause
Here lies she who lived short but well
No regrets for her, but all her story tell.”
