To the Forgotten and Unknown
To the forgotten and unknowns
It's for you I write this poem
In two hundred years this will be me and you
They'll be no one left who we ever knew
To all the ones who lived long ago
It's to you, for our lives, we owe
You paved the the path we walk on now
You survived harder times somehow
All the changes and knowledge you left
I didn't think should go unaddressed
So wherever you are and whatever you do,
On behalf of this century we thank you
