Recall the day
Where it went past me
The faces that I've seen
The names that were in mind
Kept in a mental box
Recall the time
Of what I should now
What was said to me
And what I'm told to do
Down through the mental sieve
Erased, forgotten
Despite intelligence
And inborn wisdom
Memory is imperfect
Recall the moment
That made me what I am today
It used to be so bright
But now the details are gone
Lost in the mental void
Buried, never to be retrieved again​
Where it went past me
The faces that I've seen
The names that were in mind
Kept in a mental box
Recall the time
Of what I should now
What was said to me
And what I'm told to do
Down through the mental sieve
Erased, forgotten
Despite intelligence
And inborn wisdom
Memory is imperfect
Recall the moment
That made me what I am today
It used to be so bright
But now the details are gone
Lost in the mental void
Buried, never to be retrieved again​
