FORGOTTEN
BY TINA LARSON 
 
She sits in the dark; 
no one knows. 
Poor Sara alone, 
forgotten. 
 
She once had beauty 
in demand. 
No more agents call,  
forgotten.  
 
When her looks faded, 
her friends fled. 
To them Sara's been 
forgotten. 
 
With nowhere to turn, 
she tried drugs, 
and all her pains were 
forgotten. 
 
Now she's an addict; 
she can't stop. 
No one cares she is 
forgotten. 
 
Days blur together, 
bills aren't paid. 
Forced onto the street, 
forgotten. 
 
The dark alley is home; 
old life's gone. 
Sara's hopes and dreams 
forgotten. 
 
She cries out for help, 
no one hears. 
To the world she's been 
forgotten. 
 
She sells her body now 
for her fix. 
The pride she once had, 
forgotten. 
 
The shame tears her soul; 
her heart breaks. 
With the high, all is 
forgotten. 
 
Death is beckoning; 
time slips by. 
He calls out her name, 
forgotten. 
 
It's too late for her; 
she wasn't saved. 
All she could have been, 
forgotten. 
 
On a lonely hill, 
Sara rests, 
and there she shall lie, 
forgotten. 
 
No one will come visit 
at her grave. 
They all hide; their guilt 
forgotten. 
 
A lasting peace is found 
in heaven. 
Never more to be 
forgotten.
