Speak for Me

one's life should be told after they are gone..their life story told by those they love and who love them.. told in the form of a story

who will speak for me when I am gone
tell of my life, the true one I lived
who will tell how much I had to give
who will speak for me when I am gone
will they tell of the loves I shared
the tears of joy I shed
who will speak for me when I am gone
don't want them playing no sad songs
who will tell of the laugher we shared
the feeling of the sun on my face
styling of  my warring silks and fine lace
who will speak for me when I am gone
I will, speak for me when I am gone
you see I left these words to carry on

"I will, speak for me when I am gone

I'm with you! Well said.
We write for the same reason.
To speak for ourselves, and I trust, for all in this life, we love.

Your words will speak loud and clear Cheryl. While you are here and after you aren't. Great write. Lisa

My suggestion is no one should speak for you when you are gone, you will have to speak for yourself while you are here and the rest takes care of itself.

Cheryl, sort of sad even if you do have an excellent ending point. Who will speak for anyone? Who will speak for all of us? Is their a common voice that presents our life to the Heavens. Is there a way that all the lies whispered about us. All the innuendo and the falseness that hurt and distorted our lives will be rectified.Yes who indeed will say a kind word. It is a sure thing that all the hyprocrites who know us at AD will try to destroy us with their viper tongues. Cheryl, I am sure when we stand before the throne, the Angels
will speak for us in unison; singing our praises, and we shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Amen, and God bless you. You deserve it so much. And so do I.
Trixie can you hear? Bill Murray
