The forgotten, then remembered
Hits you hard the second time ‘round,
Unprepared and snoring.
The forgotten, then remembered
Sends bubbles cutting through the surface,
We’ve all been told a watched pot never boils.
The forgotten, then remembered
Scrapes their way into your existence,
Then cuts you deep.
The forgotten, then remembered
Throws a surprise party of sorts,
Inviting emotions you never new existed.
The forgotten, then remembered
Breaks your world in half,
With one fleeting thought.
The forgotten, then remembered
Has so much to say,
Will you have time to listen?
Time comes and it goes
Just as,
The forgotten, then remembered.
