Faded and forgotten
color dulled
soul shifted
and lost in their busyness
she remains unnoticed
she has become stuck in pain
scattered amongst here-say
while lies once again cover
acts of violence
as they minimize the crime
against body,mind and soul
faded and unnoticed
is where they left her
to be forgotten
and no longer remembered
treated rotten
to make it easier for you
but my God has not forgotten
vanished and pale
dismissed by your naiveness
and the easiness of silence
go ahead
turn your head
ignore injustice
at the cost of my
my expense
none of this makes sense
i am fading
fading fast
as I ask
how can this last
as it seems to be
a spell has been cast
as i fade into the past.
This is great. Haunting…but great.
thank you :) yes it is haunting… it’s a bummer but the truth.

“But my God has not forgotten”
What a great line and what an absolute truth to be shouted from the roof-tops no matter what we have gone through or will go through.
