Unforgettable
There are many people in my life
Who are unforgettable.
People I have loved.
People I have hated.
People I respect.
People I have no respect for.
People I have worked with.
People I have hired and fired.
There are so many of you
That are unforgettable.
I think about you
More than you will ever know.
At least you are not among
The legions of people I have forgotten.
The legions of people I didn’t care
Enough about to even remember,
The legions of people who
Never made a lasting impression.
There are many people in my life
Who are unforgettable.
Are you one of them?
