Really beautifully written. I loved that.

A great sentiment, too,. As long as you've lived and had life on your terms, it shouldn't matter who knows of us or remembers how deeds. That we were here for them ourselves is quite enough.

I love the simplicity of this poem, it’s such a beautiful tribute to a life lived well that didn’t go after fame and glory but preferred quiet, beautiful moments with people that they loved. At least that’s how I feel when I read it.🩷
