After The World Forgets

HomePoetryAfter The World Forgets

Strange echoes rest
In hidden corners of the stage
The words don’t match
The history of the page
To get it all in tune
Before the music fades
Into notes of pale regret
Just to be the player
After the world forgets

Heartache lingers true
To those who say goodbye
Sacred truth still bends
To sleeping dogs that lie
Maybe let them go
Before you’re swallowed whole
By the hands of Juliet
Just to be the Romeo
After the world forgets

Be careful what you say
Be mindful where you walk
There is no guarantee
The world will hear you talk
Just keep your volume high
And learn to leave your mark
Don’t lose it to the set
Just to be remembered
After the world forgets
