The Resident

Her youth
Forever lost
A haze of memories
Tucked away in an aging mind
Left behind with no one
Forgotten soul
Alone

Good one!

one of the things i always enjoyed the most about the time i spent with my grandfather is the stories that he told my brother and i. he could remember seeing things first-hand that we had only read about in history books, and it was fascinating to hear the account of someone who was there. one of the truly sad things about growing old is the loss of so much knowledge - not only to the young, but to the old as well, knowing there used to be a memory there where there's only a hole now.
this is true, but no less sorrowful because of it.
