To Be Forgot

Some names fade like footprints in the rain.
once dear to the heart, now hard to explain.

Faces grow distant, voices grow thin,
lost to the silence where memories dim.

Such is the way, a tear drop to the sea.
Drifting - even from memory.


But you, you not.
Never I guess, to be forgot.
