Will my memories stay?
When I’m old and weak,
When I know not even my family?

Will any of this matter?
Should I keep doing things even if forgotten?
Forgotten like last week's lunch.

Should I care about people?
Will they be a lost memory?
Useless?
Pointless?

Is this the real you?
Or simply a trick of the mind?
Is this your voice, the same one that would hush me to sleep?

Will you stick by me even if forgotten?
Even when my memories leave?
Stay, I want the voice.
My memories will stay as long as you do.

Can you be forgotten?
Can you please stay?
Or will you be sad?
Follow behind me?
Happily?
Or emotionless?
Will my memories stay?
