I am, dying,
I am drifting away
I am, fading,
As tears slide down my face
I am forgetting where I'm from,
I am forgetting what I've done
On a storm-swept sea of misery,
I float all alone...
I am forgetting you,
I am forgetting me
I am forgetting this world,
And everything!
I'm forgetting my life,
And all my dreams
Now that the end is near,
I am forgetting me!
(Who am I?)
(Who am I?)
Empty bottles,
Roll around by my feet...
It's been so long,
Since I have been asleep...
All my nightmares!
Have come to life!
I am forgetting the day,
Living on the edge of the night!
I am forgetting you,
I am forgetting me
I am forgetting this world,
And everything!
I'm forgetting my life,
And all my dreams
Now that the end is near,
I am forgetting me!
(Who am I?)
(Who am I?)
Forgetting the pain,
That made me so afraid...
Forgetting myself,
And all the choices I made...
I am forgetting you,
I am forgetting me
I am forgetting this world,
And everything!
I'm forgetting my life,
And all my dreams
Now that the end is near,
I am forgetting me!

Literature
a lamentation
sometimes there is the murmur
of sadness in my hands. sometimes
my face is warmer than warm, and
sometimes this does not extend to you,
to where it ought to matter.
sometimes i think i am too small
to take wind and water into my stride;
sometimes i am the leaf that floats unbidden
into your arms, the breath of breeze
from over the sea, come to carbonate
your blood with my memory.
i am the taste of summer tart and sweet
on a forgotten tongue left leagues behind,
over oceans you could not wait to leave.
there is nothing here for you.
sometimes i forget i am not meant
to love you.
Literature
Hangman
My heart dangles by a thread
Like a game of hangman
As you determine my fate
By guessing games.
Literature
Inebriating to Remember Love
I used to head down
to the pub on main.
We'd meet up; we'd watch
the game through
the snow on the screen.
Decipher lisped play-by-plays
and sometimes, decipher wrong.
As I swished the ale around
my sweating glass, he'd walk in.
5:22 p.m -- his late-at-night;
eyes half alive and his life, half dead.
A shuffled symphony,
while finding his never-usual seat.
Skyscrapers douse
his shoulders with doubt
as the news manages to cut in.
There, he'd order his usual;
whiskey, its warmth, a foil
to his lethargy.
Despite seeing him
on all the occasions of my visits,
I observe him;
each time he arrives,
in between football plays
and

Filled with emotion!!
I really like the idea of forgetting everything...
Erasing all memory...
Starting fresh....
Withe nothing.
