When I read it
I did a double take
Why are they posting about you
Maybe I read it too quickly
I read it again
It was you
Was it true?
Then my feeds updates
And more people are posting about you
I ask what happen
Heart attack they say
A year older than me
But accomplished in your craft
Full of life and having so much more to live for
You hadn’t fulfilled your full potential
We will never know where you fell among the stars
It stopped me in my tracks
Crazy how death makes you think about life
Death can come at anytime
Why waste your life doing meaningless work
Why not live with a purpose
So when death comes you leave with a purpose
As you inspired many in life
In death you continue to inspire
Live, love and have a purpose
Don’t waste away waiting for death
When she comes to take us
Let her see she is taking someone who lived and loved with a purpose.
