Epitaph.

If someone wrote your epitaph
In advance of when you die Would you take the truth of you Or would you take the lie? Would you want the words To elevate the speaker To remind them all to live The listener and the reader. Would the truth of how you lived Raise the bar for all Would it reach inside their heart With a moving clarion call? Is every day you live on earth A chance to love and grow Is every moment learning And being in the flow? Or did you make decisions Based on fear or need How many of your choices Were purely based on greed. If your soul exposed itself To those you love right now Would you be scared of their reaction Would it kill your sacred cow? How many people know you Of those that you call friend How many people understand Your beginning and your end? Do you tell your loved ones In your words and in your deeds Exactly how you feel For them not just your needs? So, if someone wrote your epitaph In advance of when you die Would you change a thing in it Or would you let it fly?
