If you think dying’s not a problem
You’re lying.
And your love isn’t enough,
And my love isn’t enough.
Being a memory seems cool
But only when you’re around to know you are one.
Building buildings and
Writing writings that have a longer lifespan
Than 120 still die,
In people’s hearts first and then their minds.
And generations that try to survive
Don’t know their grandparent’s grandparent’s names.
Dying’s a problem because you can’t control
The fact that you’ll be forgotten.
And you will be.
And I will be.
So why do anything?
If all you live for
Or whatever you love
Will ever stop being?
