WISH
Will my name still be remembered
When i am gone and covered with soil unnumbered
Will my tainted hands still be felt
For the bad mistakes I had left
Or will I just be forgotten
Like a container that's empty
Meaning nothing and useless to the people
As the passing away of a sickler feeble
Will my legacy be passed on
For the generation to come to carry on
To accomplish the mission I failed on.
And straighten the crooked path, for me to live on
Will my name still be remembered
For the good things I have done, that has outnumbered
The painful mistakes of mine people say
Or will I just be forgotten like a fish set to sail.

"...what on earth does " the passing away of a sickler feeble" mean? And what is "a fish set to sail"? Last time I looked, fishes don't sail much. ." -
