Fade Away

Now, as my hair,eyes and ears slowly decay
I forgot what I remembered yesterday
It seems thereby
That I will not die
But slowly and so surely fade away!

I might not be known for my famous chateau
And I may not have amassed a lot of dough
With a smile I can't forget
My great love of chocolate
I'll be sure to take some with me as I go!

I heard that! (Or read that, whatever) Anyway I agree. I'm not the big vapor judge of the block, so I won't say anything! Thank you for the comment kind sir. 80] RPat
