Say My Name
Or it will be forgotten

We are the forgotten.
The ones not chosen,
The ones left out.
The ones ignored,
Fragile, flimsy, or forlorn,
Abandoned.
We tried to get noticed.
We did what you did.
But it wasn’t good.
It wasn’t great.
We weren’t tough, sturdy or solid,
Or Independent.
You know who we are.
The friend,
The aunt,
The cousin,
The schoolmate
The uncle,
The coworker,
Whose name,
You never remember.
