Unforgotten

Am asleep

Yet awake

In someone's dream

Am silent

Yet speaking 

In someone's mind

Am far away

Yet closer

In someone's heart

Am lost

But found

In someone's work

Am at peace 

Yet fighting

In someone's world

Am idle

Yet working

In someone's thought

Am dead

Yet alive 

In someone's memories

Atlas it was worth fighting

Fighting for something

It was worth dying

Dead but unforgotten.

Well said Pam Pam we often don't realise how we effect others. We live in the mind of many as many live in our minds. Thanks for the reminder.
