Last


To the last Promise you ever made

Whatever it was you said

To the last Wish you ever dreamed

While lying in your bed

To the last Tear that ever fell

And now tears you apart

To the last Smile that graced your lips

That's closest to your heart

Remember them when you have a moment,

whether the promise was kept or not

whether your wish was plausible

or your tears still come down hot

Think about what made you smile

or who, as the case may be

These all make you who you are,

They are your humanity.
