forgetfulness (Remove filter)
Cause I Can't Remember
The wind has flown and the pieces of sand are in the night sky
The moon has left and the sun’s waiting for her turn to arrive
The frog has jumped from leaf to leaf and has left ripples nearby
For these ripples have seamlessly blended that I don’t remember
I don’t remember from where these red roses have become mine
I have watched by the years as if they were places on a map

Moments Like These
I wish I never had to sleep
A vigil I would gladly keep
About your bed.
I'd watch you breathing out and in
Your eyelids gently fluttering
As if you dreamt.
You will not always be so close
That I can watch you in repose
Life takes such speed.
And now it is I most regret
The frailty that makes us forget
Moments like these.

Forgetfulness
I may forget where I put my keys.
I may forget my phone.
I may forget what day it is.
I may forget my way home.
I will never forget sunsets over the ocean.
I will never forget blessings from above.
I will never forget soothing melodies.
I will never forget the love.
