Have you forgotten me?
Please tell me you haven't.
Please tell me I'm still alive in your mind, in your heart.
Am I still realistic and vivid in your head?
Or am I just a distant memory? A mere figment of your imagination?
Am I still there, where you are? Or am I another face tucked in the back of your brain?
Maybe the answer to these questions are no, maybe I still thrive in your mind.
Maybe more than I fool I sound, but at times it seems as if
I only exist in short term remembrance.
At times it feels as if I am a mere memory.
And at times even a bad memory, erased at the thinker's will.
So tell me, where will I be in the times to come?
Will I be alive in your mind,
still vivid and bright as if I were yesterday?
Maybe the answer to this question is yes,
and pardon me for asking the inquiries of a fool,
but I long to stay there in your heart
and not forgotten like
an old teddy bear.
Loved at a point in life, then placed to the side,
slowly slipping from your recollection,
just a part of your distant past.
I long not to be forgotten.
So please, don't forget
me.
