AS OF TODAY - by Glen Martin Fitch

AS  OF  TODAY   by  Glen Martin Fitch I left my parents chanting few complaints. Too hard I stomped my footprints amid the crowd. I did a lot in spite of most constraints to help by lending hand, of which I'm proud. Though many sought to bury me with shame, I owned my own. I fought for what was right. Though some may roll their eyes, few curse my name. In peace I dream my dreams and sleep the night. Though time erode my epitaph of facts, I chiseled deep. I hope my words will hold. And though I second guess a thousand acts the love I lived was staunch and kind and bold. No "If I hadn't… had." No "If I could." If I should die before I wake ...I'm good.
