Words die,
Patients kills them.
In time they lose meaning,
In time they lose their lives.
Without meaning they lose their being
And such we cant remember why
Why it is so easy to forget what you say
And hear what you meant
We will never forget your existence,
But disregard you creation.
Your words are dead.

"Why is it so easy to forget what you say and hear what you meant." I found this to be quite true. I praise your use of personification!

wow. that is so deep and so true. I love this part, "We will never forget your existence,
But disregard you creation.
Your words are dead."
We always hear about all these important people and what they have done, but it's all dead to us now. Wonderful write!!!
