When They Carve My Name In Stone

Your name is all they will remember you by.

The only thing I've ever owned
completely owned
no strings attached and no debt to pay
I held on to it with total control
The path I paved
through countless days
sleepless nights, restless hours
and weary minutes was for the glory
a story worth words unspoken and unscathed
In the name of liberation
they will carve my name in a stone made for me
yet I am not in a grave
My spirit flies!!
remembrance floats so high
that it trickles down
to so many who won't ask why
They simply accept the presence
of a soul manifested
in the form of a lesson
or a blessing
Heavenly I will sit
promoting the gifts
of the future
as I did in my
present day life maneuvers
When they carve my name in stone
let it be known
incase they thought wrong
while I was in the physical form
