Waves of gold weave their fingers through your hair and boil the liquid on your chee

Were they all just swept up in the breeze and never found?
Were the memories of their souls stolen by sheer distraction and forgetfulness?
Or did anyone even know they existed in the first place?
Most would say that these people were the forgotten; the people that were so unloved, that no one even knew that there was
