Never Forgotten by Scott Simmons


These mornings get tougher each and every day.

Whenever the birds chirping outside are your only friends.

They can listen but will never tell you anything more than a song.
Perhaps that is enough for most.

Yet the silence between all the noise still reminds me of you.
