Let not this life slip away unnoticed
Uncherished and unfulfilled
Do not shy away from close encounters
Nor shun the limelight when it shines
Be proud of your own achievements
No matter how insignificant they may seem
Raise your voice to be heard when needed
Listen when others yearn to share their words
Above all live life true to your natural self
So that others who know you well will say
You did not let life slip away unnoticed
Your life was cherished and fulfilled
