Replying to a comment on:
forgotten (Free verse) by the indign
let me know just what all it was that you forgot;
tell me everything you let go.
what secrets are only mine?
what memories have ceased to be?
and what hopes never even were?
where does a man who has lost it all go
to hide from nothing
and embrace even less?
how loud does a man have to cry
to be lost in his own echo
and seen and heard by none?
how quiet does a man have to be
to lose himself
while stealing himself away?
a thought that made the important things in life
slip seamlessly out to no where
consumed everything it felt and parted.
no more dreams, and no more happy days.
the time for new memories has closed
and we all forget where to find the door.
