"Forgotten People"

There have been many times when I have thought about people whom lives had been what society conciders "insignificant." But how is it that these "Insignificant People" are place within this group to begin with? Is it  because they did nothing "note" worthy? or Because the did nothing "note" worthy for the publics eye? Could it be these people lived a life a privacy, with family buisness behind closed doors?? If so, couldn't society place our majority within

"The Insignificants?"

 

Forgotten People

By: Stephanie M.B.

 

Quiet faces whisper through my faded life
These foggy days, and lost moments,
All of which are falling through my broken fingers
Chasing days of forgotten love
With times of sun kissed coffins.

When deaths of choice are living loud
And times of sorrows come in pairs,
This comatose skeleton plays it's role
Crawling through his daily parade,
Crying for what mercy God has.

The laughter of a noble man,
The chilling of his daughter's heart,
And their twisting spines for stair cases
Forgotten faces falling through a broken family.

The chasings of ghostly pasts
And tattered sheets blowing the often swallowed winds.
A child's tear heard by a forgotten mother,
And a brother's mercy felt by a shattered father.
Regrets remembered by those lonesome parents
And time falls,
And time falls,
Falling time sitting in the laps of forgotten fate.

But Remember me, a forgotten child,
As mercy topples to it's knees,
"Forgive me, Forgive me, Forgive me please."
For those lost, chastised, and brittle souls;
Try to love, and remember them
Remember me, I will remember you
