Don’t Forget Me

A piece from my book:) The day sneaks up behind meTelling me my time has comeTime to leave behind all that I've worked forKnocking on every doorBegging for a chance at lifeI'm leaving and I have one wishDon't forget me when I leaveDon't forget me when I fall into the emptinessDon't forget me when I try to escape what consumes meMy time has come to say goodbyeMy flight to the heavens has arrivedSurvived the battle of life for so longEveryday closer to the loss of this everlasting battleDon't know if my imprints in this life will last foreverI'm leaving and I have one wishDon't let me drift away into the nothingness of the forgottenDon't let me fade into a memoryDon't let me be lost amongst the commonsI came and I made my markUsed my dreams to light way out of the darkWanna be remembered as more then just a common manWant people to give a damn about me when I leave this cageDon't want to be recieved into the hands of the unmournedDon't want to spend eternity feeling forlornI'm leaving and I have just one wishDon't let me turn into a torn page from a notebookAll I have in this world means nothing when I'm goneI don't want all that you have of me to be just another memoryWant my story told for all to hearSo I can rid myself of this fearI'm leaving and I have just one wishDon't leave me in this cage lingering in the dark space in the back of your mindDon't wanna be lost for no one to findGetting tired of being left behindStepped up on this plateauUp here for the world to seeThat this is me and I won't be forgottenWon't be forgottenI'm leaving this world and I have just one wishOne wishDon't forget meDon't forget me
