My Story Is Only One Poem by Shalom Freedman

My story is only one
So many people have lived and died
And gone through so much
In so many different ways
It is such a big and rich human world
Yet all die
It ends for everyone

How sad that the good the true the beautiful the best also
Everyone
And I am only one
And when I am done
Like everyone
I will not be any more
One story among the many
Largely never known
Not even forgotten
Unless God saves us.
