A Little Time with a Persistent Memory

If I gave you my memory

Would you find it odd

That I ask you to help me

Find all the details I lost?

But you weren't there

Sometimes I think

Neither was I

We'll find it anyway.

Is there a day in your past

You'd like me to see

Was it there before me

Or lost long after I left?

I suppose you must have

Stories you never told me

And I'm sure there are lies

We have both called true.

Have you an once

Or an inch I can have

If I had one would you

Let me give you mine?

I bet you still think this

Is all some bitter end

But I haven't left yet

And neither have you.
