In Death

If I were to die tomorrow,
to expire, depart, croak
I would like my words to carry on
become eternal
Let my voice be timeless in the words I spew forth
Should I be remembered for who I am,
who I truly am, not this facade I project,
it would be a tragedy
Let me be remembered as a poet,
as a creator of whimsical ideas
of beauty within the pages.
Remember me not, outside these crisp clean pages, 
forget who I am,
I create an illusion I can not live up to
in death I shall be remembered
as beautiful.
