As promised.
The Action of Forgetting
I was brilliant, once;
anymore, not so much.
It was like: listen.
this is the music
I want to make.
The moments melted,
as volatile as death
when put to flame.
To define the word sudden
patience stopped.
Life listened.
The promise weighed
unfavorable
against the wait;
how long, how close
till broken.
When i spoke, ears bent.
Now no one listens.
I play a game whose goal
is to not remember.
