COMING TO TERMS

I envy those who've gone before


their pain has ceased

and their struggles are done


and all they've left us was

fading achievements and memory


mine has some value

it was received and its validity affirmed


it served a purpose that was not in vain

some good was realized


for whatever it was worth

that's beyond understanding to tell


but it endures its terms

as we all endure ours and I envy those who've gone before


they left their burdens and continued on...
