Why am I having a hard time

Remembering

It's starting

The Forgetting it happens in phases

It's a process

First

You die

As you fall from life to death

You fall into the Lethe

Board the ferry

Pay your fare

And you think

I had a thought

But you forgot

Just forgot

The first stage is the headaches

So it starts

Small details begin to blur

Till the person that you were

Seems so distant

Was that you

As each memory erases

The photos of familiar faces smudge and blot

But you won't care a lot

You'll forget you forgot

The second stage you start to forget others

Your friends your parents

And in the third stage you start speaking in Portuguese

Portuguese

No one knows why

No it isn't uncommon to

Try to stop it

To fight for your life

Never lose sight of your life

It's tragically normal to jot it down

To write all your life

Everything tied to your life

You make notes in a book

So to fight the Forgetting

You might keep the best things

And omit what's upsetting

But as days pass

You look in your book

Just to find

That the book that your took serves one purpose

To remind you of all

Of the people

You'll never see again

For even when they come

They'll end up just as dumb and then

The last stage

You forget yourself

And suddenly you feel okay

At last it stops

And you toss the book for trash

Or you torch the book to ash

Just like they did

Just like me

And you'll learn like other folks

That life is just a joke

A trick of glass and smoke

A dream from which you

Woke
