Memory

By kenneth

I awaken in the early morning
Five something, I step outside
I light my first cigarette of the day
I’m cold is what I’m thinking
I lock away my feelings deep inside
I tell myself I don’t need em anyway

I hear a whisper within my mind
I cant quite tell what its saying to me
It said something about what I must find
I cant even recall what that means to me

Is it supposed to be something important
I try hard to remember, my mind runs rampant

I am losing everything I ever learned
It all simply just goes away, forgotten
I should know your names, your faces
I need not money I need nothing I’ve earned
I feel like I lost my soul, I feel like I’m forgotten
I forgot that I cant tie my shoe laces

I feel this horrible overwhelming rage
All this that consumes me this hatred and anger
I feel that I should be locked within a cage
I can feel myself becoming a stranger

Who I am now becoming but just a memory
And soon to be forgotten like the others by me
