smile, remember me

 

remember me, i was that face you walked by

and your eyes chose not to capture mine

 

i dared to smile but you did not acknowledge me

and because of this my day went unfulfilled

 

remember me when last I said hello and you

did not respond, so my breath became shallow

 

i am that faceless number that is posted in your

nightly news but you know not why or how

 

i am one of those many thousands that soon will

be forgotten except for them who knew and loved me

 

when next i walk by, please smile at me or say hello

for not only will my essence be, you will remember me
