Someday Soon

Someday Soon

A Poem by Joey Johnson

 

My life will be over
Someday soon.
 
I hope that it will be a
Joyous day
That no one will mourn.
 
For my life
I have not tried
To live it cheaply.
 
Struggling
To live a full life
So as to be immortal
If only in memory.
 
For someday soon
My life will come to a halt.
 
Do not remember in sadness
Love me forever
If only with joyful thoughts.

I guess this is a positive piece in that you recognise death and the aftermath, hoping there will be joyous thoughts for you. I was still left feeling sad though.

Good write.

I took a death and dying class in college... it was pretty interesting... but it kind of made me take on a new perspective when it comes to dying.

nice bit of writing.

This is the happiest autobiographical eulogy that I have ever read.

It is good to know that you have all of your affairs in order.

I enjoy writing. Never went to high school. I also hate it when people compliment what I do without seeing the end results or they are afraid they will hurt my feelings. more..
