As long as we remember


fingers swollen
from typing responses
as the reunion draws near,
everyone needs an answer
yet while I respond
their replies are vacant
not reading my own
while I'm trying to resurrect
lives of the past,
whiling a way that thought
but doesn't every life
need to be validated
to declare their existence
whether they lay
in earth succumbing to
becoming compost
or their ashes tossed
to the winds,
no matter,
their souls survive
as long as we remember...
