6 These Stories Remain

These stories will remain long after death,
All actors in the theatre of life
Who will remember us in this last breath?

First dates and prom with that one guy named Seth.
Imagining my life as someone’s wife
These stories will remain long after death.

We flew down country roads with Sam and Beth
We pretended we had never faced strife.
Who will remember us in this last breath?

They jumped without the thought of water’s depth
Played games of risk with dad’s old pocket knife.
These stories will remain long after death.

The curtain rose on the fall play, Macbeth.
The parties after, spirits full of blithe.
Who will remember us in this last breath?

Our lives measured will be so wide in breadth
The moments and the blessings both are rife.
These stories will remain long after death.
Who will remember us in this last breath?
