Gone (Nothing at all)

I never want to forget this moment
I want to remember it always
Then it slips out of view
Like clouds cover suns rays
Falling off the edge like rain drops
Rolling away like fog after night stops
Disappearing like moonlight
When the sun begins to rise
And suddenly memories are gone
No longer stored behind your eyes.

"Never forget" close your eyes
Shut the thought in caught by surprise
Loose lipped fashion
Wished it were true
Truth be told, she's already forgotten you
So let's have a moment to forget
A moment to reacquire regret
For all those memories lost and found
The voices that no longer retain their sound.

Waking this morning your eyes bright
Your hand on my back, scent of the night
Left are the lingering remains of proof
That something memorable made us move
But search for it now inside your mind
I've trouble even seeing the roadway sign
I need a pointer, I need a clue
I need you to show me what to do
I know in my heart there is something to recall
But vainly I search and find nothing at all.


Oh terrible memory
Lose what I find
Only way to keep
Is lock it in rhyme
