You do not have to live forever
it is about not being forgotten
so let me remember you
let me write countless poems
about how your eyes shine in the sun
how you are way stronger than me
and I still want to protect you
I will put every feature of your face
every little scar and all your smiles
deep into my memory
the history may not have knowledge
of your every win and triumf
but it will know you were loved and cherished.
