LEGACY
Legacy
Often we look to others
For our value,
Self - worth.
We look to acquire
It through wealth
Through our work ethic.
How misguided we get
To look to the directs of others
You only know your heart,
Your worth is within.
Most waste their time
They think not on value –
True value.
Generations come and go.
With a passing elder
Goes a pillar of strength.
Buried with them
Goes their ways, wisdom.
The true strength of a man
Is what remains
What he was known as.
We all have self worth
The question is
Do you value yourself?
With honest integrity?
Forget the measures of society
That matters not
Where the concerns the heart.
We can chase the wind
Illusions, dreams,
Fantasies.
It all is nothing.
But a man’s true value
Is within his soul.
Once you have anchored that
You can branch out
Into a solid tree
With deep roots
That will go down
Into the lives of others.
Your legacy will become
All that you have left
Not taken.
