i disappear

Pour me over the rocks again.
I'll seep down through the cracks
and disappear.
Spread myself thinly amongst the grit
and pool in tiny hollows
to leave a hint of what was.
My sediment will stay for a while,
'til the afternoon sun burns,
and i will fade away
like an early morn' dream.

Forgotten.

Painfully poignant and I echo Andy, leaving "Forgotten" to stand alone is very powerful.

excellent, kath.. this is really impressive stuff.. short but beauitfully told and the use of Forgotten by itself is well pitched..

I would consider sending this off to a few magazines

Absolutely exquisite!
I love how you used images of nature to describe these feelings...
