the names of people i used to kiss




headless angels
armless saints
rundown cemeteries
rundown faiths.

forgotten gravestones of weathered marble
forgotten lives and forgotten contribution.
how long will it take to completely forget someone?
when the ground consumes the coffin and body
when the weather has reclaimed the marble and granite stones
when the family has long since changed it's name.
is it then alright to remove the data on spreadsheets
that someone was there?

15 minutes of fame sound great but it doesn't get remembered.
i'm already
forgetting the names of people i used to kiss.
