You can’t keep holding on
to disaster
Disaster has no heart
but to destroy
You need to live

I say this because I’m a friend
I say this because I need you
I need you here to the end

how it is that we forget
when and why we got here
and how we ever met

I do not remember

I do not remember
what you also do not
what we said we never will
and what we both forgot

as long as a piece of string

what you would cut in half
I decided a long time ago
as long as you were here
long is such a long ago
I, short of memory,
long to remember
