I Have Written My Life Away-Most Of What I Have Written Is Already Lost

I HAVE WRITTEN MY LIFE AWAY- MOST OF WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN IS ALREADY LOST

I have written my life away-
Most of what I have written is already lost-
A portion of the work remains-
And who knows how long it will last?

I will try in the time left
To make it better –

But who knows
It may be like
Much of most things
Not worth keeping-

I have written my life away-
Thank God I had the time to do this.
