In Loving Memory




I wish I could tell you how I felt.



When I see the memory signs,
On the side of the roads.
Engraved with a unknown name
Perhaps they roam like a ghost.


Casting their shadow of sorrow 
As people drive by 
Often wondering if their fate was decided,
Like a cold hand of death snatched them
From the earth.
If their last thoughts
even mattered
as their life came to an end.
As they depart from their  family
Loved ones
Who will sob
forever.
I wish I could tell you.
How I feel 
When I see the memory signs.
On the side of the the roads,
Thinking what if that was you
or me.
