A Lament For Memories

Don't say it out loud
Just vaguely hint
At who you're talking about
Now a memory

Can one remember every battle lost?
If so then i don't
Blame you, for your choice

It wasn't this it wasn't that
They tell us but it is a fact
That no one knows anything
About what went on within
The final minutes of her life
Did she feel her heart slow down
Was it over quick?
Or did it last, enough to make her
Question why

With time
Memories decay
Making this just another long lost page

Don't say it out loud
Just vaguely hint
At who you're talking about
Now a memory

Can one remember every battle lost?
If so then i don't
Blame you, for your choice

Why are we so fragile
Life just withers
Away
Broken forever

Can one remember
Every battle
Can one remember
Every battle lost
