Forgotten Memories, Ashes and Dust

We are fleeting travelers, seeking to etch our names upon the flowing river of existence.

I would really appreciate it if you could please stay on the page 
for at least 30 seconds to help me support my work as per Medium's new changes.

in the grand composition of time we’re but a fleeting breath our lives mere moments in the vast expanse of history’s depth we studied the story of mortal man just a blink within the span of a few short years

we journeyed through the ages millions of years unfurled condensed into those moments like gems in the stream of the world as i ponder this i wonder what comes next how those in the future will look back and reflect

for time is a relentless river that keeps flowing never still and i shall become a relic a piece of time to fulfill what will be my legacy or will it just fade away like ripples on a pond disappearing day by day

perhaps i’ll leave no trace no mark on history’s page a shadow in the passage of the years a fleeting stage forgotten memories my name would be lost to the sands of time when my days are over ashes to ashes for dust i am and to dust i shall return

My inspiration:

Places of loss and time long gone Treading the paths of mourning Of dreaming ended in nevermore All hope at an end and buried deep Left behind by those who lived on Now speaking to seekers of melancholy Strangers long laid to eternal rest Now left to be revered by strangers Shadows fall on forgotten memories by Author, D. Denise Dianaty
