If I should go tomorrow into the great unknown <br />Do not mark the spot where I might lie with a memorial stone <br />For any sort of recognition will be worthless to me then <br />For the dead are just a memory even to their kith and kin. <br /> <br />My life is unexciting financially I'm close to broke <br />And those who say that money speaks every language are not cracking a joke <br />And those who say that money does not guarantee us happiness <br />not telling us anything that's new <br />Yet better be wealthy and unhappy than poor and miserable only happens to be true. <br /> <br />If I should die tomorrow on me do not waste your tears <br />And if you do remember me just say he had his better years <br />And he had his addictions he penned a lot of rhyme <br />Yet his best writing efforts did seem a waste of time. <br /> <br />If I should go tomorrow to the place of no return <br />It will not matter If I am buried or my bones to ash will burn <br />I will be past all caring and of all feelings I'll be free <br />And it really will not matter then if none remember me.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-should-go-tomorrow/
