No legacy to be left behind

I lived a full life
it was long and I was happy
with a loving family
yet I left with nothing

memories soon fade
until the memory of me
fades into obscurity
my work is all that's left

but pages are burnt
I sacraficed and sacraficed
but nobody remembers
this is my second death
